  2. Peripheral vascular examination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripheral_vascular...

    Ankle-brachial pressure index (ABPI) assesses peripheral vascular disease. It may however be unreliable in patients with calcified arteries in the calf (often diabetic patients) or those with extensive oedema , in which case toe pressure or Toe-brachial pressure index (TBPI) should be measured to aid in the diagnosis.

  3. Ankle–brachial pressure index - Wikipedia
