Abstract

Real-time ultrasonic echo imaging of peripheral arteries promises to facilitate the management of selected patients with peripheral and extracranial arterial disease. This report outlines the technique of imaging the carotid system and portions of the arteries that supply the lower extremities. It also discusses the normal and pathologic anatomy of these arteries.
