Angiology is a branch of medicine dedicated to the study, diagnosis, and treatment of disorders of the blood vessels. It focuses on the structure and function of the circulatory system, examining arteries, veins, and capillaries. The field addresses a wide range of conditions, including the formation of clots (thrombosis), hardening of the arteries (atherosclerosis), and the weakening or bulging of vessels (aneurysms). Clinical practice involves evaluating vascular integrity and managing systemic issues related to blood flow and circulation to maintain proper function throughout the body.
