Although a temporal artery biopsy is the gold standard for diagnosis of giant cell arteritis (GCA), there considerable evidence that characteristic signs demonstrated by colour duplex sonography (CDS) arteries may be diagnostic importance. We aimed to test hypothesis CDS can replace in algorithm approach diagnose GCA. Bilateral was performed consecutive patients older than 50 years with clinically suspected GCA, as well 15 age- and gender-matched control subjects diabetes mellitus and/or...
