Innovative Multiparametric Characterization of Carotid Plaque Vulnerability by Ultrasound

Innovative Multiparametric Characterization of Carotid Plaque Vulnerability by Ultrasound

ObjectiveThe degree of stenosis of a carotid plaque is a well-established risk factor for ischemic stroke. Nevertheless, the risk of ipsilateral stroke in asymptomatic carotid stenosis remains low and new imaging markers are needed to better target which patients would benefit most from endarterecto...
