abstract: In a epidemiological study 3840 clerks of state of North Rhein Westfalia were investigated concerning the frequency of atherosklerotic leasions of the carotid and femoral arteries in duplex scanning. 17% of all investigated showed independency to age, sex and risk factors alterations of the vessel walls.
