Carotid Doppler Scan

Price: £249

Our Carotid Doppler Ultrasound Scan is a safe, accurate, and non-invasive test designed to assess the carotid arteries in your neck. These arteries supply blood to the brain, and narrowing or blockages can increase the risk of stroke or transient ischaemic attack (TIA). This scan uses advanced Doppler technology to evaluate blood flow and detect early signs of carotid artery disease.

What this scan includes:

• High-resolution ultrasound of the carotid arteries
• Doppler assessment of blood flow and velocity
• Detection of narrowing, plaque build-up, or blockages
• A detailed medical report of findings

Why choose this scan?

• Non-invasive and painless procedure
• No radiation exposure
• Helps investigate symptoms such as dizziness, visual disturbances, weakness, or previous TIA/stroke
• Identifies early signs of carotid artery disease before symptoms appear
• Performed by experienced vascular specialists using advanced ultrasound technology

Who is this scan suitable for?

• Patients with a family history of stroke or cardiovascular disease
• Individuals with risk factors such as high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, or smoking
• Those who have experienced a TIA, mini-stroke, or unexplained neurological symptoms
• Anyone seeking reassurance about their vascular and stroke risk health
