Carotid Doppler Ultrasound Scan Price: £225
A Carotid Doppler Scan is a safe, painless ultrasound test that checks the carotid arteries in your neck. These arteries carry blood from your heart to your brain. The scan looks for narrowing, blockages, or reduced blood flow, which could increase your risk of stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA or mini-stroke).

- Blood flow through the carotid arteries
- Presence of plaque or fatty deposits (atherosclerosis)
- Narrowing or blockage in the arteries
- Risk of stroke or reduced brain oxygen supply

- High blood pressure or high cholesterol
- Diabetes
- History of stroke or TIA
- Family history of vascular disease

- Dizziness, blurred vision, fainting, or numbness on one side of the body
Possible Symptoms or Causes
