An algorithm was elaborated for screening patients for carotid artery duplex ultrasound imaging (DUI). DUI should be carried out in all women above 50 years old and men above 45 years old, in all women less than 50 years old and men less than 46 years old if they are hypertensive, and in nonhypertensive subjects with a total cholesterol level of >5.0 mmol/l regardless of age. This should not be done in nonhypertensive subjects and in individuals with a total cholesterol level of ≤ 5.0 mmol/l irrespective of age.

Keywords:

algorithm

subclinical atherosclerosis
