Femoral popliteal (also called femoropopliteal) bypass surgery is a surgical procedure that may be used to treat severe blockage due to plaque in the femoral artery. The femoral and popliteal arteries are located in the legs.

Fluoroscopy Procedure

Fluoroscopy is a study of moving body structures—similar to an X-ray "movie."

Fetal Ultrasound

Fetal ultrasound is a test used during pregnancy that creates an image of the fetus in the mother's uterus, or womb.

Factor I

This test measures the amount of a protein called factor I, or fibrinogen, in your blood. It helps find out if you have a bleeding or clotting disorder.

Factor II

This test measures how much of the protein prothrombin, or factor II, is in your blood. It can help diagnose bleeding and clotting disorders.

Factor IX (Antihemophilic Factor B)

The factor IX test is part of a larger screening to find out which type of hemophilia you have.

Factor V

This test looks for a deficiency in a protein called factor V. This protein is one of your body's "clotting factors." When you have too little factor V, you may have bleeding problems.

Factor VIII (Antihemophilic Factor A)

This test helps find out whether you have hemophilia A or another clotting disorder.

Factor X

This test checks for a deficiency in a protein in the blood known as Factor X. This protein helps with clotting.

Factor XI

This test measures the amount of factor XI in your blood. Factor XI is a substance that plays an important role in blood clotting.
