Does angioplasty check the heart and neck arteries or just heart?

I had it done last Tuesday, and it checked only my heart...Are you having one done?

My husband had it done and a stent put in. He still complains of soreness under neck and I'm wondering if her could have the neck artery clogged too.

Angioplasty can also check the main arteries in the neck. They did a complete left side flush with me to check things were ok in my last procedure. When they do a big flush in the main arteries, it feels very hot for about 10 seconds.
