The scan itself is quick, painless and non-invasive and the results are available straight away.
A result letter is also sent to all patients’ GPs.
Men with a screen detected aneurysm of 5.5 cm and above are referred into the vascular centre for surgery whilst those with aneurysms measuring between 4.5 and 5.4 cm are put on quarterly surveillance; those with aneurysms measuring between 3 and 4.4 cm are recalled for surveillance on an annual basis.
