Duke Center for Vascular Diseases
The Duke Center for Vascular Diseases offers a system of integrated, seamless, multidisciplinary care designed to provide timely, comprehensive, and individualized care strategies for patients with vascular disease. Our goal is to break down many of the traditional barriers to care while facilitating the coordination and planning of the patients’ short- and long-term care objectives. Diagnosing disorders of blood vessels and arteries can be complex in nature, and our team of expert vascular surgeons, cardiologists, and interventional radiologists work together to coordinate and manage each patient’s care in a centralized setting. From risk factor management and diabetes care to wound management and treatment planning, our specialists will monitor every aspect of care in a patient-centric environment.
The Duke Center for Vascular Diseases provides patients with access to nationally and internationally recognized care providers, cutting-edge research trials in virtually every medical specialty, and state-of-the-art diagnostic and treatment strategies, including:
- 3D volume-rendered CT and MRI to facilitate optimal anatomic reconstruction strategies and minimize use of invasive diagnostic modalities
- Specialized vascular ultrasound and vascular noninvasive diagnosis
- Minimally invasive/percutaneous treatment of carotid, renal, and lower extremity occlusive disease, including atherectomy, laser atherectomy, and tibial angioplasty
- Medical, surgical, and minimally invasive therapy for critical limb ischemia
