BOARD 1
1. Showing a stent in the external iliac artery and thrombosed femoral popliteal bypass of right leg; anterior view
BOARD 2
1. Showing normal blood flow in right leg after thrombosed femoral popliteal bypass; anterior view
BOARD 3
1. An aortobifemoral bypass due to blockage in the aorta; anterior view
BOARD 4
1. Orientation: macro view of affected arteries due to diabetes; anterior/anteromedial view
2. Detail: affected posterior tibial artery
3. Micro view of the affected posterior tibial artery
BOARD 5
1. Blockage in the femoral artery
2. A femoral popliteal graft is placed to bypass the blockage in the femoral artery
BOARD 6
1. Blockage of arteries and a micro-view showing the effects of the foot
2. A graft placed to bypass the blockage; a micro-view showing the pigment of the foot returning to normal
3. A diabetic with artery calcification; micro-view: effects of the foot
4. A bypass which restores some part of the artery; micro-view: same damage to the foot
BOARD 7
1. Blockage of arteries
2. Graft used in femoral-popliteal bypass
3. Graft used in femoral-posterior tibial bypass
BOARD 8
1. Gortex and saphenous vein graft used in femoral-posterior tibial bypass; blood flow to foot is restored back to normal
2. A blockage in the graft causes a lack of blood flow to the foot
3. Detail: new blood clot in the graft
BOARD 9
1. Obstruction of the femoral-popliteal graft and multiple arteries of the lower limb; anteromedial view
2. Detail: clot in the arteries
BOARD 10
1. Femoral-posterior tibial bypass
BOARD 11
1. Blockage of femoral artery
2. Femoral-popliteal bypass
BOARD 12

2. Detail: catheter inserted into blood vessel - tissue plasminogen activator (tPA)
3. Blood flow to foot restores to normal
BOARD 13
1. Comparison between a normal blood vessel and a blood vessel with peripheral artery disease
2. Detail: plaque build up in artery prevents blood flow
3. Popliteal-peroneal bypass graft restores blood flow throughout leg
BOARD 14
1. Orientation: femoral and politeal artery
2. Detail: plaque build up in artery
3. Femoral-popliteal graft in place
