Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) screening is a test to check if there’s a swelling in your aorta, which is the main blood vessel that carries blood from the heart to the tummy (abdomen).
AAA screening is offered to all men over the age of 64. Anyone assigned male at birth who is over the age of 64 can have it.
For further information search the internet for NHS AAA Screening.
