A member asked:
Cta neck: no evidence of occlusion, significant stenosis, or dissection of the cervical carotid or vertebral arteries. trace atherosclerotic disease of the left carotid siphon what does this mean ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is an almost normal study. Trace atherosclerotic vascular disease is commonly seen in Americans at your age. However, I still suggest a lipid panel if it has not been done yet in the previous 12 months just to make sure your numbers are in ranges.
