The Silent Danger of
Arterial Plaque
Carotid artery disease occurs when plaque builds up in the arteries that supply blood to the brain, increasing the risk of stroke.
Many patients have no symptoms until a transient ischemic attack (TIA) or stroke occurs, making early detection critical. Our team focuses on identifying blockages through non-invasive evaluation before they become symptomatic.
Early Detection: A simple vascular ultrasound can identify high-risk blockages and save your life.
TIA Warning Signs
Do not ignore these temporary indicators
TIA (Mini-Stroke)
Temporary episodes of stroke-like symptoms that resolve within 24 hours.
Sudden Weakness
Numbness or loss of control in the face, arm, or leg, typically on one side.
Speech Difficulty
Sudden confusion, trouble speaking, or difficulty understanding others.
Vision Changes
Blurred vision or sudden loss of sight in one or both eyes.
Advanced Stroke
Prevention
We utilize advanced imaging to assess the severity of disease and offer both medical management and specialized procedural options.
TCAR Procedure
Dr. Desai was the first to offer this breakthrough technology in Cypress to reverse flow and protect the brain.
Artery Stenting
A minimally invasive endovascular procedure using a mesh coil to keep the artery open.
Carotid Endarterectomy
The surgical removal of plaque buildup from the inner lining of the carotid artery.
Medical Management
Evidence-based medication optimization to stabilize plaque and lower overall stroke risk.
"TCAR represents a monumental shift in how we treat carotid disease. It allows us to protect the brain by reversing blood flow during the procedure, making stenting safer than ever before."
