Dear Colleague,
RE: Americas Vein Centers is now an Accredited Vascular Laboratory
Peripheral Venous Testing
I am pleased to announce that our center, Americas Vein Centers, the Ultrasound Division-Diagnostic has
attained recognition for its commitment to providing a high level of patient care and quality testing for
the diagnosis of vascular disease. The facility achieved accreditation by the Intersocietal Commission for
the Accreditation of Vascular Laboratories (ICAVL).
Participation in the accreditation process demonstrates the laboratory’s attention to a high level of
patient care and quality testing. ICAVL accreditation is valid for a period of three years.
The ICAVL is a non-profit organization established with the support of eleven medical societies including
physicians, technologists and sonographers that represent medical specialties including cardiology,
neurology, radiology, vascular medicine, vascular surgery, neurosurgery, internal medicine and biology.
One American dies every 32 seconds of cardiovascular disease, disorders of the heart and blood vessels.
Each year, 2 million people in the United States alone develop deep vein thrombosis – blood clots in the
veins. This affliction becomes life threatening for 500,000 of those people when the blood clot breaks
loose and travels to the lungs.
Early detection of these life-threatening vascular diseases is possible through the use of noninvasive
vascular testing techniques performed within vascular laboratories.
Americas Vein Centers, Ultrasound Division- Diagnostic located 2 Park Central Drive in Southborough,
MA, is one of a select number of vascular laboratories in the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico to
meet or exceed the ICAVL standards for noninvasive vascular testing. During the accreditation process,
every aspect of the laboratory’s daily operations and its impact on the quality of health care provided to
patients is assessed and reviewed. While completing the application, laboratories are required to identify
and correct potential problems, revising protocols and validating quality assurance programs.
Again, it is with great pleasure and pride to announce our accreditation with the ICAVL and look forward
to offering our services to your patients and I hope that you will make Americas Vein Centers your first
choice for your patients with vein disease.
Sincerely,
B. Bergus, M.D.
