Nonmodel-based Dynamic Contrast-enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging for the Assessment of High versus Low Risk Carotid Atherosclerosis
Background: Parameters of carotid atherosclerosis dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) are associated with stroke risk indices, but studies have only evaluated symptomatic arteries. I hypothesized that DCE-MRI parameters are different between carotid atherosclerotic plaques at high and low risk f...
