It is used in the diagnosis of obliterating atherosclerosis, varicose vein disease, venous insufficiency, and thrombosis. The method helps identify angiopathy in diabetes mellitus and arterial hypertension. It is also applied in preparation for vascular surgery and in assessing the effectiveness of treatment of vascular diseases.
