Rotterdam Study reveals calcified plaques double bleeding risk, challenging assumptions about plaque stability in subclinical ...

New findings from an analysis of the ADVANCE registry support the use of CT angiography as a more central part of the ...

This condition is associated with complications such as stroke, myocardial infarction, and peripheral vascular disease, which usually result from unstable ... plaque progression. Figure 1: MRI ...

Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. The high signal intensity of coronary plaque on non-contrast CMR, which can be quantified on T1-weighted inversion recovery images, correlates with a high ...

Unstable carotid atherosclerotic plaque presenting intraplaque haemorrhage (IPH) are a major cause of ischaemic stroke. High-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (HR-MRI) of the carotid plaque is ...

Brain MRI revealed a subacute ischemic infarction in the right frontoparietal region. Extracranial ultrasound showed a nonstenotic, heterogeneous atheromatous plaque with interrupted fibrous cap ...

An MRI may also show areas where plaque is unstable. Plaque is a substance that can build up inside the blood vessels, causing restrictions or blockages. If a piece of plaque breaks off ...

In recently symptomatic patients with stroke or TIA, we investigated the relationship between morphological MRI biomarkers of unstable carotid plaque and inflammation-related plaque metabolism ...

However, detection of IPH using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) might be limited due to false ... Aims: To test whether MPI can image IPH for detecting unstable plaques and exploring the mechanism of ...

Background: Intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) tends to affect multiple arterial segments, and previous studies rarely performed a comprehensive plaque analysis of the ... All the subjects ...
