Carotid Artery Duplex Scan is a diagnostic imaging procedure that uses ultrasound technology to evaluate the anatomical and hemodynamic characteristics of arteries that supply blood to the brain.

These include the carotid and vertebral arteries, which supply blood to the brain and are essential for assessing the following:

• Vascular structure;
• Blood flow velocity;
• Prevention and management of cerebrovascular diseases;
• Potential pathological abnormalities.

The accuracy and non-invasive nature of the examination result in minimal discomfort for the patient, which is particularly valuable in the management of chronic and progressive vascular conditions.

The data obtained through Carotid Artery Duplex Scan often guide further clinical decision-making, including the selection of therapeutic strategies or, if necessary, the consideration of surgical intervention. It is considered one of the most informative and effective methods for evaluating the vascular system supplying the brain.
