Giant Cell Arteritis || Superficial Temporal Artery Doppler || Ultrasound || Case 243

Clinical Features:
A 36 years old female patient came with severe headache, more over the right frontal region.

Ultrasound Features:
Bilateral superficial temporal arteries appear increased in diameter, tortuous in course with circumferential hypoechoic edematous wall thickening causing luminal narrowing.
Pulse wave Doppler shows normal flow with a well-represented diastolic component.

Remember:
In case of temporal arteritis, the patient will show you the artery as a painful area.
