There are some relatively simple tests that can be done to determine if your arterial blood flow in you legs is normal. Segmental Pressure Test in this test the blood pressure at several points in your leg is checked using a blood pressure cuff and a Doppler. Then, you are asked to walk on a treadmill, following which your ankle pressure will be taken again to determine if the pressure decreased when you walked.
