Ultrasound Tissue Characterization of Vulnerable Atherosclerotic Plaque
A thrombotic occlusion of the vessel fed by ruptured coronary atherosclerotic plaque may result in unstable angina, myocardial infarction or death, whereas embolization from a plaque in carotid arteries may result in transient ischemic attack or stroke. The atherosclerotic plaque prone to such clinical events is termed high-risk or vulnerable plaque, and its identification in humans before it b...
متن کاملTissue characterization of atherosclerotic plaque vulnerability by nuclear magnetic resonance.
Developing imaging technologies capable of identifying unstable atheromatous plaques in vivo is a major issue of clinical cardiovascular research. These techniques would permit an earlier surgical or medical therapy and would anticipate acute ischemic syndromes. Plaque vulnerability depends on the relative amount and thickness of its lipid core and fibrous cap. Several means of assessing athero...
متن کاملSimulation of human atherosclerotic femoral plaque tissue: the influence of plaque material model on numerical results
BACKGROUND Due to the limited number of experimental studies that mechanically characterise human atherosclerotic plaque tissue from the femoral arteries, a recent trend has emerged in current literature whereby one set of material data based on aortic plaque tissue is employed to numerically represent diseased femoral artery tissue. This study aims to generate novel vessel-appropriate material...
متن کاملThe atherosclerotic plaque.
Atherosclerosis is the most frequent cause of ischemic heart disease and cerebrovascular disorders. The condition is the leading cause of death in Western societies. At the core of this condition is the atherosclerotic plaque. It is within the structure of this lesion that multiple biochemical and cellular processes interact influencing its vulnerability to rupture and as a result acute ischemi...
متن کاملCharacterization of atherosclerotic carotid plaque using MATCH: initial clinical experience
Background Characterization of carotid artery morphology and plaque composition requires multiple measurements with different contrast-weightings, which are limited by long scan time, image misregistration, and expertise-dependency in image interpretation. Recently, a new method,3D Multicontrast ATherosclerosis CHaracterization (MATCH) has been developed to overcome the above drawbacks by acqui...
