Ankle-brachial Index (ABI)

Ankle-brachial Index (ABI)

Ankle-brachial index (ABI) is a test for PAD, that compares the blood pressure in the leg to the blood pressure in the arm. If the blood pressure in the arm is higher than the blood pressure in your legs, this could be an indication of decreased blood flow in your legs known as Peripheral Artery disease or PAD.
