The Ankle Brachial Index (ABI) examination is the most common test used to diagnose Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD), a disease that effects between 8 and 12 million people in the US every year. Both the American Heart Association (AHA) and the American Diabetes Association (ADA) recommend annual Ankle Brachial Index (ABI) screenings for patients with the following conditions:

• Type 1 Diabetes
• Age 50 and up
• Leg pain
• Heart disease
• Previous vascular surgery
• Smoking
• Numbness or tingling in the lower extremities
• Hypertension
