How is Peripheral Arterial Disease (P.A.D.) Diagnosed?
Ultrasound Duplex Scan
When clinicians wish to determine the precise location of an occlusion or need to understand more about the features and severity of Peripheral Arterial Disease (P.A.D.) lesions, they can use ultrasonic duplex scanning. This is another non-invasive method. It can provide clinicians with information about the thickness of artery walls, blood vessel structure, blood flow velocity, and blood flow turbulence.
