The proposed study is evaluating a novel technology, Carotid Stenotic Scan (CSS), developed
by the sponsor, CVR Global. Study Design. This is a prospective cohort study that will
compare a new application of a technology, the CSS device, to reference standards for
assessment of carotid disease.
by the sponsor, CVR Global. Study Design. This is a prospective cohort study that will
compare a new application of a technology, the CSS device, to reference standards for
assessment of carotid disease.
The overall objectives of this study are to demonstrate that the Carotid Stenotic Scan (CSS)
can accurately detect significant carotid artery stenosis.
Secondary objective is to relate changes in CSS signal to different degrees of stenosis. We
obtain a "proof of concept" if the device correlates strongly with the established
classification of atherosclerotic carotid disease derived various imaging modalities
including magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) and computer tomographic angiography (CTA),
conventional angiography, or carotid ultrasound.

Inclusion Criteria:
- Subjects over 18 referred for carotid duplex ultrasound.
- Subjects over 18 referred for CT angiography, MR angiography, or conventional
angiography of the carotid arteries
Exclusion Criteria:
- Previous history of carotid endarterectomy, carotid artery stent
- Previous surgery involving the neck (including thyroidectomy or parathyroidectomy)
- Patients with prosthetic heart valve
- Patients unable to provide informed consent.
