Syncope in Patient with Bilateral Severe Internal Carotid Arteries Stenosis/Near Occlusion: A Case Report and Literature ReviewCarotid artery stenosis, carotid stenting, carotid endarterectomy, magnetic resonance angiogram, syncopeBackgroundSyncope is commonly worked up for carotid stenosis,...
Carotid ultrasound (also called sonography) is the most common test for diagnosing carotid artery disease. It’s a painless, harmless test that uses sound waves to create pictures of the insides of your carotid arteries. This test can show whether plaque has narrowed your carotid arteries and ho...
Atherosclerosis is a systemic disease affecting the coronary, carotid, and lower limb arteries. Cerebrovascular accidents and lower limb ischemia are devastating postoperative complications. We aimed to evaluate the role of non-selective routine arterial duplex scanning in patients undergoing coronary artery...
The intact circle of Willis and lack of hypervascularity of the lenticulostriate arteries were observed. Decreased regional cerebral blood flow (CBF) in the bilateral ACA and MCA territories quantified by 123I-N-isopropyl-p-iodoamphetamine-single photon emission computed tomography indicated the need...
Assessment of carotid stenosis(CAS). Each participant underwent a bilateral carotid duplex ultrasound examination (Philips iU-22 ultrasound system, Philips Medical Systems, Bothell, WA) to evaluate CAS as a part of their standard diagnostic workup. Bilateral carotid arteries, including the common...
This is a prospective descriptive research which was carried out in Imam Khomeini Hospital related to Tehran University during two years (1375-1377) in order to study the incidence of internal carotid stenosis in patients who suffered from TIA ot minor stroke. It was evaluated by duplex sonography...
When both exter nal carotid arteries were ligated and common carotid artery flow represented internal carotid flow, critical stenosis was determined to be 90%, and this did not change with superimposed bilateral vertebral arterial and con tralateral carotid arterial occlusion. 展开 ...
Pulsatile flow artifacts in two-dimensional time-of-flight MR angiography: initial studies in elastic models of human carotid arteries. Initial experimental and numerical analysis of artifacts due to pulsatile flow in two-dimensional time-of-flight (2D-TOF) magnetic resonance (MR) angiograp... RB...
Stenosis in the cardiovascular system can occur in many regions of the body, however it most commonly effects the heart valves (aortic, pulmonary, mitral, and tricuspid), coronary arteries, renal arteries, carotid artery, and in peripheral arteries (intermittent claudication). A number of 1D ...
