If you have coronary artery disease, you may also be at risk for problems with arteries in other parts of your body. Narrowing, blockage, or blood clots can happen in the arteries or veins leading to your brain (putting you at risk for a stroke), your arms, and legs.

This safe and painless test uses sound waves to search for plaque or narrowing in the arteries or veins and estimate the amount of blockage. General types of vascular studies are:

1. 1. Peripheral: Searches for blockage or narrowing in the arteries or veins in your arms and legs.
   2. Carotid: Assesses blockage or narrowing of the carotid arteries of the neck.

If you have any questions, you can consult with Dr. Jimenez or Dr Sanchez for an appointment.
