Carotid duplex?
DefinitionCarotid duplex is a procedure that uses ultrasound to look for blood clots, plaque buildup, and other blood flow problems in the carotid arteries. The carotid arteries are located in the neck. They supply blood to the brain.Alternative NamesScan - carotid duplex; Carotid ultrasoundHow the test is performedThe test is done in a vascular lab or radiology department of a hospital. You will be asked to lay on your back. Your head will be supported to prevent it from moving.The health care provider applies a water-soluble gel on your skin and gently runs a handheld device called a transducer over the area of the carotid arteries in your neck. The devices sends high-frequency sound waves to the arteries in your neck. The gel helps transmit the sound waves. The sound waves bounce off the blood vessels and form images of their structure.How to prepare for the testNo preparation is necessary.How the test will feelThe test is noninvasive and painless.Why the test is performedThe test checks blood flow in the carotid arteries.
