Carotid Artery Stenosis Market: Introduction
· Carotid stenosis, also known as carotid artery disease, is characterized by the narrowing of the carotid arteries, the primary blood vessels that carry oxygenated blood to the brain. The narrowing is caused by plaque or fatty deposits along the inner wall of the artery, resulting in reduced blood flow to the brain.

· Over time, plaque deposits inside the inner wall of the artery can form a large mass that narrows the lumen, the inside diameter of the artery, and cause a complete blockage of the artery
· Atherosclerotic plaque in the cervical carotid artery is the most common cause of carotid stenosis. Stenosis can worsen over time to completely block the carotid artery, which could lead to stroke, a medical emergency that occurs when the blood supply to the brain is interrupted or reduced significantly.
