Echocardiography and Noninvasive Vascular Testing Lecture Series: Assessment of Aortoiliac and Lower Extremity Arterial Aneurysms

April 5, 2023

Accurate diagnostic evaluation, staging and imaging of the patient with suspected arterial aneurysmal disease are fundamental to successful management. In addition to a thorough history and physical examination, noninvasive vascular studies serve to confirm the clinical diagnosis and define the level and extent of vascular pathology affecting extremity perfusion, which can help determine the likelihood of wound healing and limb salvage after open surgical and endovascular revascularization.

Please join us to hear Dr.  Alex Powell discuss a multimodality systematic approach in the diagnosis and management of arterial aneurysmal disease.
