When detected early, most vascular diseases can be treated effectively before a problem occurs. Providence Vascular Program offers three easy screening tests for circulatory diseases, all of which are non-invasive, painless and quick: - Carotid scan - detects blockages in arteries to the brain
- Abdominal aortic scan - detects and measures aneurysms
- Peripheral arterial disease evaluation (PAD) determines if there is a blockage in the circulation to the limbs
 Who should be screened for vascular disease?
Those over the age of 50 with these risk factors: diabetes, smoking, high blood pressure, high blood cholesterol or a family history of circulatory programs.
