Ankle Brachial Pressure Index (ABPI)

At London Private Ultrasound, we prioritize your cardiovascular health by providing high-quality, comprehensive Ankle Brachial Pressure Index (ABPI) ultrasound scans. An ABPI ultrasound scan is a non-invasive test that measures the blood pressure in your ankles and arms to assess your circulation and diagnose peripheral arterial disease (PAD).

PAD is a common condition that occurs when the arteries in the legs become narrowed or blocked, reducing blood flow to the lower extremities. PAD can lead to a variety of complications, including leg pain, cramping, numbness, and even tissue death.

An ABPI ultrasound scan is a simple and effective way to detect PAD early on, when it is most treatable. The test is also used to monitor the effectiveness of treatment and to identify any changes in your circulation over time.
