Arterial doppler indicates that brachial, ulnar and intraosseous artery are of low resistive pattern. s this normal. radial artery occluded due to clot?

More info: Low resistive means the flow is good. I don't know why your radial artery is clotted, but we'd need more information.

Unusual: A peripheral artery should have a high resistant pattern on doppler exam. A low resistance may suggest a connection with a vein, arterial venous (av) malformation or av fistula. An injury to the arm may have caused occlusion of the radial artery and also an av fistula. Luckily the ulnar artery is usually the main vessel supplying the hand. Further studies may be needed to define the anatomy.
