A member asked:
Bilateral high flow in common carotid artery and internal carotid artery with normal end diastolic velocity and no stenosis. is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
How high is high?: Increased flow without stenosis can happen if the cardiac output is very high or there is tortuosity if the arteries Generally don't worry until systolic velocity is over 200 cm/sec and even then it is probably ok with normal diastolic velocity why did you get the test? IF you are asymptomtic I would not worry too much
