Carotid artery plaque is a measure of atherosclerosis and is associated with future risk of
atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), which encompasses coronary …

Rupture of a vulnerable carotid plaque is one of the leading causes of stroke. Carotid
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is able to visualize all the main hallmarks of plaque …

There are advantages to conducting cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) studies at a
field strength of 3.0 Telsa, including the increase in bulk magnetization, the increase in …

Purpose: To evaluate interscan reproducibility of both vessel morphology and tissue
composition measurements of carotid atherosclerosis using a fast, optimized, 3T …

This study sought to determine the multicenter reproducibility of magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI) and the compatibility of different scanner platforms in assessing carotid …

Background Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) allows volumetric carotid plaque
measurement that has advantage over 2-dimensional ultrasound (US) intima-media …

Purpose Vessel wall volume (VWV) and localized vessel‐wall‐plus‐plaque thickness (VWT)
measured from three‐dimensional (3D) ultrasound (US) carotid images are sensitive to anti …

The objective of this study was to characterize the sensitivity of voxel‐based morphometry
(VBM) results to choice field strength. We chose to investigate the two most widespread …

Atherosclerosis is a chronic, progressive, inflammatory disease affecting many vascular
beds. Disease progression leads to acute cardiovascular events such as myocardial …

Objective To improve carotid 3T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) dimension
measurements in patients with overt atherosclerotic carotid artery disease. Materials and …
