Managing carotid stenosis

Abstract

Stenosis of the internal carotid artery in the neck is an important and potentially treatable cause of ischaemic stroke (cerebral infarct), transient ischaemic attack (TIA) and retinal infarction. We discuss here the diagnosis and assessment of patients with carotid stenosis and consider ways of preventing the damage the condition can cause.
