Tests include carotid duplex, venous duplex and arterial Doppler. Read More → Jul 4, 2016 Electrophysiology / Arrhythmias Permanent pacemakers are placed for bradyarrhythmias (slow heart rates). Sometimes the pacemaker completely controls the heart rhythm, at other times it only serves as a backup for slow rates. Read More → Jul 4, 2016 What is Carotid Ultrasound Imaging? Ultrasound imaging, also called ultrasound scanning or sonography, involves exposing part of the body to high-frequency sound waves to produce pictures of the inside of the body. Ultrasound exams do not use ionizing radiation (as used in x-rays).
