Carotid Duplex

Carotid Duplex Ultrasound

Our Carotid Duplex Ultrasound is a comprehensive, non-invasive diagnostic tool designed to assess the health of your carotid arteries, the key vessels supplying blood to your brain. This advanced test combines two powerful imaging techniques:

1. B-mode Ultrasound: This technique generates detailed images of your carotid arteries, allowing us to visualize their structure and detect any plaques or blockages. Using high-frequency sound waves, our ultrasound transducer creates clear images of your arteries to help us diagnose and monitor potential issues.

2. Doppler Ultrasound: This method evaluates the flow of blood through your carotid arteries. By measuring the speed and direction of blood flow, we can identify any irregularities or areas of reduced flow that may indicate the presence of carotid artery disease.

Our Carotid Duplex Ultrasound is quick, painless, and does not involve radiation, making it a safe and effective way to evaluate your vascular health. It is particularly useful for detecting conditions that could increase your risk of stroke. The results help us tailor the best treatment plan for you, ensuring your health and well-being.
