The carotid arteries deliver blood to the brain. One artery is located on each side of the neck. When your doctor puts his or her hands on your neck to detect a pulse, he or she is feeling for one of your carotid artery. Carotid artery disease (CAD) occurs when a blockage in one of these arteries decreases the blood flow to the brain. This can lead to stroke. According to an article in the journal Circulation, an average of 750,000 people have a stroke every year in the United States.

Arteries form part of the circulatory system. They carry blood that is oxygenated after it has been pumped from the heart. Arteries also aid the heart in pumping blood.

(Usually veins carry deoxygenated blood to the heart but the pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood.) There are two unique arteries.
