The risk of coronary artery disease can assess from.
The risk of abnormal coronary arteries is a ladder. Which can examined by gender and age.
Men over 40 years old and women over 50 years old or postmenopausal women will have an increased risk ladder due to the accumulation of cholesterol levels. However, if diseases are found that increase the risk of coronary artery disease, such as diabetes, having had various vascular diseases such as cerebral artery disease and carotid artery disease, abdominal artery disease. Artery disease of the lower extremities, it will be possible to identify the high and low risk of coronary artery disease more clearly.
Whole body vascular risk screening
Whole body vascular risk screening is a preliminary diagnosis for Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD) cause by blockage of blood vessels in the legs. It is by measuring the pressure index at the ankle and comparing. It to the pressure value of each arm, Ankle Brachial Pressure Index, ABI, to check. If there is a blockage of the blood vessels on that side or not.
What can an ABI test look at?
- Look at the blockage of the arteries and the elasticity of the blood vessels.
- Helps diagnose or detect early stage peripheral arterial disease. Which is often found in conjunction with blockage in blood vessels supplying the heart and brain.
- Helps predict future risk of cardiovascular disease.
- Used to assess the severity of blood vessel stenosis.
- To evaluate the results after treatment
ABI Interpretation
Normal arterial stiffness values should be greater than or equal to 1.0. If the arterial stiffness value is less than 0.9, there may be a problem of หากคุณสนใจเล่นพนันออนไลน์ที่ดีที่สุด สามารถสมัครสมาชิก UFABET ได้ที่นี่ พร้อมรับโปรโมชั่นพิเศษสำหรับสมาชิกใหม่ blockage and the doctor considers that there is an indication for risk of arterial disease. Further diagnosis may be required by taking an X-ray with a CT Scan or MRI. After injecting dye into the artery. The results show that 95% have peripheral arterial stenosis.
