ACCEPTED Check Mark

It is a CT scan (computerized xray) given with IV contrast dye.

They will take xrays of your legs, (before and after), they inject contrast dye into your arm. The run off part, just means how the vessels drain on the xray film.
They can see if there is damage, or loss of blood flow to your legs.
