What
is arterial segmental testing?
This test is used to evaluate the circulation in your legs.
What
does it involve?
Four blood pressure cuffs are placed on each leg at various locations. In
addition, a blood pressure cuff is placed on each arm. These cuffs are
inflated, one at a time, to record your blood pressure. These recordings
enable your doctor to determine how good or bad your circulation is in
your legs. Based on results of this test, more tests may be ordered to
determine the exact location of any blocked arteries. |
