Overview
Diagnostic Study of Choice
Study of choice
- Abdominal ultrasound is the gold standard test for the diagnosis of abdominal aortic aneurysm.[1]
- Ultrasound is both convenient and easy to preform with high specificity and sensitivity.

| Test 2 | ...% | ...% |
[Name of test with higher sensitivity and specificity] is the preferred investigation based on the sensitivity and specificity

Sequence of Diagnostic Studies
The [name of investigation] must be performed when:
- The patient presented with symptoms/signs 1, 2, and 3 as the first step of diagnosis.
- A positive [test] is detected in the patient, to confirm the diagnosis.
OR
The various investigations must be performed in the following order:
- [Initial investigation]
- [2nd investigation]
