A case report of acut ischemic stroke caused by carotid ultrasongraphy
Abstract :
Carotid doppler ultrasonography is a commonly used method for ischemic stroke etiology. Used as a noninvasive method in the detection of atherosclerotic vascular disease. Karotid doppler ultrasonography is not a risk factor for ischemic stroke. In this case, this method which is used to diagnose ischemic stroke caused an ischemic stroke attack. In this case I present a patient who had ischemic stroke attack during carotid doppler ultrasonography and had a normal neurological examination after intravenous thrombolytic therapy (Alteplaz).
