Evaluation of Distal Extracranial Internal Carotid Artery by Transoral Carotid Ultrasonography in Patients with Sever Carotid Stenosis AJNR 23:924-928, Kishikawa,K.,et al, 2002 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract Conventional ultrasonography techniques do not allow visualization of the distal cervical segment of the internal carotid artery (ICA). In a study of patients with severe ICA stenosis, we performed transoral carotid ultrasonography (TOCU) t o assess its ability to image this segment of the artery. TOCU provides additional information regarding the characteristics of the distal ICA that can be obtained neither by conventional carotid ultrasonography nor by angiography.
