The noninvasive laboratory was established by Dr. Wiley Barker in 1973. From
the start the facility has been involved in studying and developing noninvasive
procedures and their application to clinical applications. Throughout the years,
we have focused on improving the techniques so as to provide the highest
accuracy of diagnostic procedures. In 1992 the laboratory became one of the
first in the country to be accredited by the Intersocietal Commission for the
Accreditation of Vascular Laboratories (ICAVL). Participation in this voluntary
review process shows our commitment to maintaining high standards in the quality
of testing provided.
The laboratory provides outpatient testing at 200 Medical Plaza Building.
Regular hours are 8 AM to 5 PM, work days
Ordering vascular laboratory tests-
There is a dedicated ordering form required to order tests in the vascular
laboratory. If you need a supply of the forms, please request these from the lab
office (310) 206-6294, option 2. The attending physician must check off the test requested
and the indication. The lab will not schedule a test if the indication is not
provided. The test can be forwarded by campus mail or by fax.
The laboratory currently has a very heavy load, but efforts will be made to accommodate requests for urgent tests.
Contacting for questions and problems-
If you have any questions or problems, please contact J. Dennis Baker, MD, Medical
Director, via campus e-mail: jbaker@mednet.ucla.edu
