Ankle–Brachial Index (ABI) / Peripheral Arterial Study

Quick summary:

A fast, noninvasive test comparing blood pressure at your ankles and arms to screen for peripheral artery disease (PAD). Includes Doppler waveforms for accuracy. Cash-only, transparent pricing with results explained in visit and a radiologist report within 24 hours.

Why choose LuxER for this test

1. Concierge access: Same/next-day appointments, no waiting.
2. All-inclusive price: Test + radiologist interpretation—no hidden fees.
3. Expert team: Performed by experienced sonographers 
4. Fast results: Preliminary guidance in visit; full written report in 24 hours.
5. Hospital-grade equipment with continuous-wave Doppler and standardized technique.

What this test assesses

• ABI (bilateral): Ratio of ankle to arm pressure to screen for PAD
• Doppler waveforms: Characterize flow (triphasic/biphasic/monophasic)
• Identifies reduced perfusion that may explain leg pain with walking (claudication), nonhealing wounds, cold feet, or risk factors (diabetes, smoking, high cholesterol)

All scans are carried out by highly experienced clinicians, with results explained during your appointment and a full written report delivered within 24 hours.

Medical disclaimer

This study is for medical screening/diagnostic assessment and does not replace care from your primary physician or specialist. Abnormal results may require further vascular imaging or referral. If you develop sudden severe leg pain, pale/cold foot, numbness, or loss of pulse, call 911—these can be signs of acute limb ischemia.

What’s included

1. Bilateral ABI with Doppler waveforms (posterior tibial & dorsalis pedis)
2. On-site explanation of initial findings when possible
3. Board-certified radiologist report within 24 hours
4. Secure link to results (and images where applicable)

Typical duration: 10–20 minutes

How to prepare

• No fasting needed.
• Avoid nicotine and vigorous exercise for 2 hours before your test.
• Wear loose pants/shorts that can roll above the knee; remove compression socks prior to testing.

Who this test can help

• Leg pain with walking that improves with rest (claudication)
• Nonhealing foot/leg wounds, cold feet, or color changes
• Diabetes, smoking history, high cholesterol, hypertension
• Pre-op vascular risk screening or PAD follow-up
