Brain ultrasound aims to stop tiny strokes during common artery procedure

NCT ID NCT07462546

Summary

This study is testing if using a special ultrasound on the brain during a carotid artery stenting procedure can make it safer. The procedure opens a narrowed neck artery to prevent a major stroke, but tiny clots can sometimes break off and cause small strokes. Researchers want to see if the ultrasound can detect and help break up these tiny clots, reducing the risk of brain injury for the 232 participants.
