No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Contrast ultrasound perfusion imaging (CUPI) is a novel tool for the assessment of muscle perfusion deficits in peripheral arterial disease (PAD). In this study we want to examine the effect of bypass surgery and balloon angioplasty on the calf muscle blood supply. We hope find a new way of quantifying success or failure of invasive treatment strategies.
