The above color Doppler images show a cross section through the bifurcation of the (Rt.) common carotid artery into its two main branches: 1) Rt. ECA- the external carotid artery 2) Rt. ICA- the internal carotid artery. The image on right shows a section just above the bifurcation. IJV= the internal jugular vein (seen in blue color). Note that the ECA is more anterior and medial to the ICA. Also, the ICA (internal carotid artery) is larger than the other branch- the ECA.
The above Color Flow images show a long section through the Rt. CCA (common carotid artery) bifurcating into the ICA (internal carotid artery) and ECA (external carotid artery). Note the wider caliber of the ICA. (arrow points to the bifurcation).
