Prompted by the World Thrombosis Day (Tuesday 13 October 2015), IASO General Hospital, true to its effort in the general public’s awareness and education on the value of prevention, offers a lower extremities veins triplex scanning as well as a clinical examination by specialized vascular surgeons at the nominal price of 26 Euros.

Those interested can call at +30 210-6502020, from Tuesday 13 October to Friday 16 October (08:00 -16:00) and book their appointment. Please note that the offer is only for a limited number of patients who will be scheduled on a first call-first served basis.

The above screening test contributes to the early diagnosis and consequently to the effective management of any pathological conditions affecting the lower extremities veins such as venous insufficiency (phlebitis, varicose veins) which may result in serious complications of venous thrombosis or pulmonary embolism. Phlebothrombosis affects both men and women of all ages and the symptoms may vary (swelling and intense pain on the leg, fever, etc). In cases the condition is asymptomatic, it can be easily diagnosed via a color flow duplex ultrasonography (triplex).
