Peripheral arterial aneurysm

Blood Vessels & Circulation
Abdomen & Pelvis

Peripheral arterial aneurysms are bulges in arteries outside the aorta, most commonly in the iliac and femoral arteries within the scan area. They can cause clots to form or rupture. An MRI may show a focused widening in a peripheral artery consistent with an aneurysm. Finding a peripheral arterial aneurysm early allows for monitoring and may allow for repair before it causes embolic or rupture complications.
