FAQs

Can CTA Lower Limbs detect blocked arteries?

Yes. CT Angiography can demonstrate arterial stenosis (narrowing) and occlusion (blockage) and help determine their location and extent.

Can CTA Lower Limbs detect blood clots?

Yes. It can demonstrate findings associated with arterial thrombosis or occlusion and help identify the affected vessel.

Can CT Angiography detect vascular injuries?

Yes. It can help identify arterial injury, pseudoaneurysm, dissection, active bleeding, or other vascular complications, particularly after trauma.

Is CTA Lower Limbs useful before vascular treatment or surgery?

Yes. Multiplanar and 3D reconstructions can provide detailed information about vessel anatomy, patency, and the extent of arterial disease, helping with planning for procedures such as angioplasty, stenting, or bypass surgery.

Do I need any preparation before CTA Lower Limbs?

Preparation depends on the centre's protocol. You may be asked to fast for a specified period, and kidney-function assessment may be recommended before contrast administration when clinically appropriate.
