Carotid Artery Wall Thickness Measurement

South Carolina rates for HCPCS 0126T

An ultrasound probe is placed on the neck to image the carotid artery, and the thickness of the inner layers of the artery wall is measured. A thicker wall points to more build-up of fatty deposits in the arteries generally. The measurement is used as part of estimating a person's risk of heart disease.
