Find vascular disease before it finds you
Aneurysms, carotid blockages and PAD often cause no symptoms until a stroke, rupture or limb-threatening event. Non-invasive screening can detect them early.
Silent conditions with serious consequences
Smaller aortic aneurysms rarely cause noticeable symptoms. Carotid artery disease often progresses silently — many patients only discover it after a stroke or TIA. And many people with PAD have mild or no symptoms.
Our screening tests use ultrasound and blood-pressure measurements. They are painless, use no radiation or needles, and give us a clear picture of your circulation.

What we check
Abdominal Aortic Ultrasound
The primary screening tool for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) — measures the size of the aorta in your belly.
Related conditionCarotid Duplex Ultrasound
Measures blood-flow velocity in the neck arteries to determine the percentage of narrowing (stenosis).
Related conditionAnkle-Brachial Index (ABI)
Compares blood pressure at the ankle to the arm to detect blockages in the leg arteries.
Related conditionVenous Reflux Duplex Ultrasound
Maps the leg veins, measures valve closure and identifies where blood is leaking backward.
Related conditionYou may benefit from screening if you…
Are over 65
Risk of aneurysm increases with age, especially over 65 — and PAD risk rises significantly after 50.
Smoke or have smoked
Smoking is the primary risk factor for both PAD and abdominal aortic aneurysm.
Have high blood pressure
A major factor in carotid disease, aneurysm and aortic dissection.
Have diabetes or high cholesterol
Both accelerate plaque buildup throughout the arteries.
Have a family history
A family history of aneurysm, stroke or vascular disease significantly increases risk.
Have leg pain when walking
Cramping that eases with rest (claudication) is a classic sign of PAD.
