Thoracic Outlet Syndrome

Our protocol enables high resolution imaging of the blood vessels in multiple positions, such as neutral, arm up, and head turned.  The comprehensive imaging with these provocative maneuvers enhances the sensitivity of the exam.  Additionally, we obtain imaging of the muscles and bones of the thoracic outlet, as well as the nerves.
