Extracranial Internal Carotid Artery Tortuosity and Body Mass Index

Extracranial Internal Carotid Artery Tortuosity and Body Mass Index

BackgroundExtracranial internal carotid artery (eICA) tortuosity may trigger cerebral ischemia, and body mass index (BMI) is a measure of body mass based on height and weight. The main purpose of this study is to determine the influence of BMI on the tortuosity of eICA.MethodsA total of 926 carotid...
