Are you 65+ and male? Free screening event for abdominal aortic aneurysm
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) screening is a way of checking if there's a bulge or swelling in the aorta, the main blood vessel that runs from your heart down through your tummy. This bulge or swelling is called an abdominal aortic aneurysm, or AAA. It can be serious if it's not spotted early on because it could get bigger and eventually burst (rupture).
What happens during AAA screening
Screening for AAA involves a quick and painless ultrasound scan of your tummy. This is similar to the scan pregnant women have to check on their baby. You will receive your results straight away.
If you are 65+ and male you can self-refer for this screening event.
The event is appointment-only.
