Carotid artery disease occurs when the major blood vessels that supply the brain become narrowed or blocked due to plaque buildup. This condition significantly increases the risk of stroke, making early diagnosis and treatment essential. Symptoms can be silent for years, but in some cases, patients may experience warning signs like sudden weakness, vision problems, or difficulty speaking.
At Radiance Clinic, Thane, Dr Ashish Sarode, a board certified vascular and interventional radiologist, advanced diagnostic tools are used to assess the severity of carotid artery narrowing. Depending on the condition, treatment options may include lifestyle modifications, medication, or minimally invasive procedures. The goal is to restore proper blood flow to the brain, reduce the risk of stroke, and improve overall vascular health.
Ignoring carotid artery disease can lead to life-threatening complications. Seeking timely medical attention ensures that preventive measures can be taken before serious events occur. Book an appointment today to safeguard your health and future.
