Carotid artery stenosis

Head & Neck
Blood Vessels & Circulation

Carotid artery stenosis is a narrowing of the carotid arteries, the major blood vessels that supply the brain. It often develops gradually without symptoms and is a significant risk factor for stroke. An MRI may show signs of narrowing or changes in these vessels. Identifying narrowing in the carotid arteries early allows for risk factor management and intervention that may help prevent a serious event.

SCReening explained
It’s important to understand that OneMRI's full-body scan is a general proactive health scan developed to include areas where preventative screening delivers the most meaningful insight in a way that is safe and non-invasive. The scan should be used to compliment other routine scans and screening. It should not replace standard screening protocols or targeted procedures as recommended by your doctor, specialist or health provider. Examples of these include mammogram, prostate examination, cervical screening, colonoscopy, and lung cancer screening.
