Instead of using vasoactive drugs, which may have side effects, to induce a hyperemic state and therefore demonstrate gradients, it may be useful to create a hyperemic state by simple external cuff compression of the calf for a minute to...

A patient presented with complaints of what seemed to be rest pain involving his right lower extremity, which was unusual given the patient’s few risk factors. Imaging revealed what appeared to be thrombus, although ultimately the patient did...

Although endovascular therapy of femoropopliteal lesions with nitinol bare metal stents improves the relatively low primary patency rates achieved with balloon angioplasty, up to 37% of BMS-treated femoropopliteal lesions develop in-stent...
