A member asked:
What is arterial occlusion? is there no blood flow at all?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Little to none: Arterial occlusion can be partial or complete blockage of an artery leading to comete or partial loss of blood flow to the affected area. An arteriogram and arterial doppler ultrasound can show the degree of blockage and if there is any blood flow.
