An alternative diagnostic method could improve early detection and treatment of peripheral artery disease (PAD), according to a new study from the University of Surrey.

Echocardiography, PET, axillary artery ultrasound and MRI may also be appropriate in individual cases suspected of large-vessel disease. Bone mineral density measurement may be required.

Arteries are pathways for blood to travel over our body. Carotid Artery is present in the neck of our human body. Carotid artery carries blood from the heart to our brain. There are two Carotid ...

Summary form only given. This paper introduces a novel segmentation scheme for carotid artery ultrasound images. The proposed scheme is based on watershed segmentation algorithm. It consists of four ...

To establish the optimal conditions for recanalisation of obstructed arteries without damage to vessel walls, a Nd-YAG laser coupled to a 0.2 mm diameter optic fibre was used on obstructed human ...
