    1. This protocol is for a carotid CTA scan to evaluate carotid artery stenosis, aneurysms, or dissections. The patient will be positioned supine with their head first. A craniocaudal topogram will be performed. 2. A helical scan will be done with Care kV of 120, Care Dose4D of 90, and a rotation time of 0.5 seconds. Images will be reconstructed at 2mm slice thickness and spacing. 3. Intravenous contrast of 80mL Iohexol will be injected at 4mL/second. Bolus tracking will be used to trigger the scan at the aortic arch.
