Abstract
Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) is a catheter-based procedure that allows for the internal assessment of a blood vessel. This includes evaluation of diameter, stenosis, calcification, and dissection. We present a case in which IVUS led to the discovery of a popliteal artery aneurysm in the setting of acute limb ischemia that was missed on computed tomography scan and angiogram.
