Muscles and cells behind the blockage are no longer supplied with sufficient oxygen. The physicians call this state of deficiency of blood as "ischemia".

Detecting PAD

In a baseline exam, the attending physician uses the Doppler pressure measurement to determine the ABI index (also known as the ankle-brachial index).

Life after treatment

Peripheral Arterial Disease can be treated with modern technology devices and techniques with the aim that the patient's quality of life is restored.
