It takes only 30 minutes to determine if your arteries are clear or if they are silently building dangerous plaque. Carotid duplex ultrasound is a fast, safe, and life-saving procedure. One appointment safeguards years ahead.

Are You at Risk for Stroke? Find Out if This Test is Right for You

Stroke risk does not come with flashing warnings. It builds quietly through high blood pressure, diabetes, smoking, or simply the passing of years. If you are over 50 or have a family history of heart disease, your arteries may already be under strain without you realizing it.

Carotid duplex ultrasound is designed to reveal what you cannot see or feel. In just a short session we can measure how blood flows to your brain and detect narrowing that raises your risk for stroke. It is a safe, accurate way to move from uncertainty to clear answers.

If you recognize even one of these risk factors, this test is not something to put off. Early detection means timely treatment, less worry, and greater control over your health. Do not wait for symptoms to make the choice for you.

What to Expect During Your Carotid Artery Duplex Scan

What to Expect During Your Carotid Artery Duplex Scan

There are no needles, no injections, and no downtime, just a clear path to answers about your artery health.

 During the scan, a small amount of gel is applied to your neck, and a handheld device gently moves across the skin. This ultrasound probe creates live images of your carotid arteries, allowing us to see how well blood is flowing to your brain and whether there are signs of narrowing or plaque buildup.

 The entire carotid artery scan usually takes less than 30 minutes. Once it is complete, your results are reviewed right away so you leave with clarity and peace of mind, not unanswered questions. It is a straightforward test that delivers confidence about your health the same day.
