Ultrasound Neck Arteries scan

In some assessments, we use Ultrasound as an alternative means of determining whether there is any narrowing of the neck arteries that supply blood to the brain. This would indicate an increased risk of stroke.

If any narrowing is considered severe enough, a procedure can be undertaken to ‘clear’ the blockage and reduce the risk.
