A vascular lab earns by throughput: carotid duplexes, ABI studies, venous reflux exams, lower extremity arterial mapping, dialysis access surveillance. The study list is predictable, the reimbursement schedule is well established, and the equipment doing the work is a specific class of ultrasound machine with particular capabilities that matter enormously for diagnostic confidence. High-quality spectral Doppler resolution, strong color flow sensitivity at low velocities, and a linear probe library that handles superficial vessel imaging at 5 to 15 MHz are not optional features for a serious vascular program. They define whether the machine is actually doing the clinical job or just approximating it.
We finance vascular ultrasound machines for independent and hospital-affiliated vascular surgery practices, vascular labs within cardiology and radiology groups, dialysis access programs, and vein centers. Vascular ultrasound systems configured for a full lab program typically run between $80,000 and $200,000 at the new end. Used systems from established manufacturers, when serviced and in good probe condition, often provide equivalent clinical output at substantially lower acquisition cost. Both are financeable here, and we do not treat used equipment as a secondary category.
