Carotid Ultrasound Beverly Hills
One of the many services offered at Beverly Hills Cardiovascular is a carotid ultrasound. This type of ultrasound may be required for a variety of reasons, including to look for blood clots or other blood flow problems. If you have been asked to have a Doppler ultrasound to examine the condition of your carotid arteries, please consider visiting Beverly Hills Cardiovascular for assistance. Our team will be happy to handle this examination for you, and we’ll answer any questions you have along the way. How Does It Work? On a basic level, any kind of ultrasound is a fairly simple process. The ultrasound device transmits high-frequency sound waves into the body in the region that needs to be examined. When the transducer recovers the sound waves that have bounced back, the computer can get to work on the process of assembling an image out of those waves. There is some impressive technology in play to make an ultrasound machine work properly, and in the end, it is able to provide a non-invasive way for your doctor to get a great look at what is going on inside your body. Why Would This Exam Be Requested?

There are too many possibilities to list them all here, but it’s safe to say that a carotid ultrasound Beverly Hills can be useful when trying to detect a variety of conditions.If your doctor suspects you may have a problem with blood clots, for instance, a Doppler ultrasound of this region of your body may be ordered. Or, if there is concern about stenosis from plaque buildup, ultrasound could again be a useful option.Picking the Right Provider We are aware that there are plenty of other cardiology practices in the Beverly Hills area, and we appreciate that you have taken time to consider our office.
