Abstract

Evaluation of the pedal arteries has not been well evaluated by noninvasive duplex ultrasound. It offers an alternative approach that directly studies the angiosome supply of the foot. The goal of this article is to describe the technique, protocol, and criteria to properly evaluate the pedal arteries of the foot with noninvasive duplex ultrasound.
