Imaging of Peripheral Artery Disease

Disease Overview

Peripheral artery disease affects blood flow to the limbs. Imaging helps identify blockages and structural changes. Students learn common PAD patterns.

Ultrasound Use

Ultrasound evaluates blood flow and vessel structure. It helps identify stenosis and occlusion. Students explore common vascular applications.

CT and MRI

CT and MRI provide detailed visualization of vessels. They help assess complex vascular conditions. Students learn when advanced imaging is preferred.

Clinical Integration

Imaging findings guide treatment decisions such as surgery or medication. Accurate interpretation supports timely care. Students learn how to recognize critical PAD signs.
