ECST Carotid Stenosis (with NASCET conversion)

ECST carotid stenosis measurement, with the NASCET figure for the same artery beside it.

Open the calculator → Runs in your browser. Data leaves only if you deliberately send a problem report from the interactive tool.

Example

Narrowest residual lumen
2
Distal internal carotid diameter beyond the bulb
4
Estimated original diameter at the stenosis
8

Result: The same artery is a 50% stenosis by NASCET and a 75% stenosis by ECST.

The tool opens with these values already filled in. Replace them with your own.

What you enter

  • Narrowest residual lumen (mm)
  • Distal internal carotid diameter beyond the bulb (mm)
  • Estimated original diameter at the stenosis (mm)
