Doppler ultrasound?
Doppler ultrasound is often used as a screening imaging exam for patients with claudication or leg pain. Depending on the results of the ultrasound, e.g., there is evidence of a flow limiting stenosis, the ordering physician will then go on to obtain a vascular surgery consultation. The vascular surgeon after obtaining a history and physical exam from the patient may then go on to order a CTA or formal angiogram for the most sensitive imaging of the arteries in the lower extremities. Ultrasound is the most expedient Imaging exam to begin with given the cost, wide availability, relative short length of time to image the patient, and ease of scheduling. Hope that helps. Thank you.
