متن کاملShould we indeed measure carotid intima-media thickness for improving prediction of cardiovascular events after IMPROVE?

Two are addressed in the report y Baldassarre et al. (4) in this issue of the Journal: “What is the ‘best’ CIMT measure for increased cardiovascular risk?” and “Does a CIMT measurement help improve the ...
