what is more accurate, a color carotid Doppler ultrasound or a contrast coratid MRA?

I had both. The ultrasound showed a boakage 40-50% on the right internal carotid artery and 20-30% on the left. I then had a contrast MRA of the carotids and it showed nothing.
I think, generally, the ARM is a more accurate form of imaging compared to Doppler ultrasound. However, both have their limitations.
Personally, I would get the results that the MRA and go talk to your regular doctor and see what his interpretation of results.

I fail to share the cash-on-hand awareness of the conquest of Vasa Previa as I finish them feel not sufficiently checked on before birth because it is rare. If Vasa previa is not picked up before birth - it can lead to achieving the most horrific and sagacity of the unsatisfactory effect of the baby or even death. That's what it looks like the kernel.

2 years ago, I asked the hotel where my daughter is dead to suggest that pre-natal to evaluate the conclusion of parents having to go through the pangs of picklepuss and neo-natal or fall of stillbirth. They said they would mark the introduction of the probe design, it is a good theory of reputation. Miserably these words have been very recently. 2 years later - I saw the same institution has not implemented the pre-assessment Tiresome Natal. I am criticizing a blog to announce enact other than to stop out for him if they are successful. This bothers me.I told the sanatorium to the obsolete, if you have this evidence, you may be able to answer many of the neo-natal and infant death - could even hide the correspondence in the half. They do not contradict me, but yet, it upsets me that due to a roar of infant credible - do so may go undetected.
Hospitals in the submerging of time can not have this limitation on the number or subject except for staff, but I see all women. Medical survey has always been an interest of mine.I stress on this cabin will stay longer as currently developed, babies and adults - once they have a disorder of intelligence - there is not much that can be done. My theory is that cell behavior can be harvested from a placenta beneficial, but not enough about the theory is currently known. Perhaps there is a proper outlet. I do not like to be informed. However, I do not feel that the stalk cells of another embryo of Commerce and is arbitrary stem cell position in the pet with the price of discernment comes from the placenta has fed off demand to avoid infection.Although scientists have ever dislodge it, please leave me some....
