What is a bilateral carotid doplars test & how often should 58 male well controlled diabetic with 2 stents in lad be getting this done.no high bp?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Your carotid: Arteries are located along your neck and are important blood vessels that supply the majority of your blood to the brain. Carotid Dopplers are ultrasound studies that look at the velocities of blood going through your arteries on the way to the brain. Any blockage or slowing down usually means there are atherosclerotic plagues that can cause a stroke in the near future. U should get it annually
