![]() | Media file 1: Pulse-volume recording study shows disease on the right side. Compare the waveforms and the ankle-brachial index numbers on both sides. |
![]() | Media file 2: Gray-scale sonogram demonstrates the popliteal artery, which is located between the calipers. It measures 0.62 cm in diameter. Findings are normal in this study. |
![]() | Media file 4: Popliteal artery. Video illustrating the Images 1-3 was recorded during real-time color Doppler ultrasonography. |
![]() | Media file 5: Digital subtraction angiogram (DSA) illustrates a high-grade short-segment stenosis of the lumen of the right superficial femoral artery (a). |
