Overview
Typical Noninvasive Vascular Laboratory Tests for Lower Extremity PAD Patients by Clinical Presentation - ACC/AHA Guidelines (DO NOT EDIT)
Laboratory Findings
Clinical presentation | Noninvasive vascular test |
Asymptomatic lower extremity PAD | ABI |
Claudication | ABI, PVR, or segmental pressures; Duplex ultrasound; Exercise test with ABI or assess functional status |
Possible pseudoclaudication | Exercise test with ABI |
Postoperative vein graft follow-up | Duplex ultrasound |
Femoral pseudoaneurysm, iliac or popliteal aneurysm | Duplex ultrasound |
Suspected aortic aneurysm; serial AAA follow-up | Abdominal ultrasound, CTA, or MRA |
Candidate for revascularization | Duplex ultrasound, MRA, or CTA |
