Carotid duplex ultrasound after carotid stenting
Nature of the scan Generally, a follow-up scan after a carotid stenting procedure is performed for the surveillance of the stent, not for monitoring of the untreated contralateral carotid. Hence, if the contralateral artery is not significantly stenosed, we perform ipsilateral scans only (i.e. “targeted US”). Since the distal/cephalic end of the carotid stent can be placed well distal/cephalic ...

متن کاملTechnical recommendations for the use of carotid duplex ultrasound for the assessment of extracranial blood flow.
Duplex ultrasound is an evolving technology that allows the assessment of volumetric blood flow in the carotid and vertebral arteries during a range of interventions along the spectrum of health and chronic disease. Duplex ultrasound can provide high-resolution diameter and velocity information in real-time and is noninvasive with minimal risks or contraindications. However, this ultrasound app...
متن کاملUtility of carotid duplex ultrasonography in a general inner-city hospital
BACKGROUND Carotid Duplex Ultrasonography (CDUS) is one of the non-invasive imaging modalities used to evaluate for carotid artery stenosis. However, it is often used in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), peripheral artery disease (PAD), before heart surgery, syncope and non-specific neurological symptoms although its value is unclear. Our study aimed to further investigate the yield ...
متن کاملThe Current Role of Carotid Duplex Ultrasonography in the Management of Carotid Atherosclerosis: Foundations and Advances
The management of atherosclerotic carotid occlusive disease for stroke prevention has entered a time of dramatic change. Improvements in medical management have begun to challenge traditional interventional approaches to asymptomatic carotid stenosis. Simultaneously, carotid artery stenting (CAS) has emerged as an alternative to carotid endarterectomy (CE). Finally, multiple factors beyond degr...
