Correlation between Plaque Eccentricity and Vessel Remodeling in the Human Femoral Artery: a Morphology Investigation by High Resolution MRI

چکیده
wall thickness (B) can be calculated by CASCADE automatically. Fig 2-3: Cross-sectional T1 weighted images show examples of atherosclerotic femoral arteries with eccentricity index of 0.27 and 0.83. They have remarkably different morphologies, but the NWI values are similar (0.80vs.0.85). (Outer wall: light blue; Lumen: red circle; Calcification: dark blue) Reference: 1. Ohara T, et al.

The association of lesion eccentricity with plaque morphology and components in the superficial femoral artery: a high-spatial-resolution, multi-contrast weighted CMR study
BACKGROUND Atherosclerotic plaque morphology and components are predictors of subsequent cardiovascular events. However, associations of plaque eccentricity with plaque morphology and plaque composition are unclear. This study investigated associations of plaque eccentricity with plaque components and morphology in the proximal superficial femoral artery using cardiovascular magnetic resonance ...
متن کاملAssociation of carotid atherosclerosis eccentricity with high risk plaque features: An MRI study
Introduction Identifying patients with carotid atherosclerosis at risk for ischemic stoke would greatly benefit patient outcomes. Recently, high-resolution methods have enabled MRI to noninvasively image the fine internal structure of the carotid plaque [1]. Some carotid plaque features, such as the presence of intraplaque hemorrhage (IPH) and thin or ruptured fibrous cap on multi-contrast weig...

Background: A correlation between coronary artery disease (CAD) and atherosclerosis of peripheral arteries and the determination of noninvasive indexes for its existence and extent have been sought by many researchers. Some studies report that the intima-media thickness (IMT) of peripheral arteries could play this role. This study evaluated the correlation between the IMTs of common carotid and...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE There are limited studies on the morphologic characteristics of MCA atherosclerotic stenosis. Our aim was to quantitatively assess the remodeling pattern and plaque distribution of atherosclerotic MCAs with 3T high-resolution MR imaging. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighty-seven consecutive patients with symptomatic atherosclerotic stenoses at the M1 segment of the MCA on DSA ...
متن کاملA High-Resolution MRI Study of Relationship between Remodeling Patterns and Ischemic Stroke in Patients with Atherosclerotic Middle Cerebral Artery Stenosis
Purpose: Recently, high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (HR-MRI) has been used to depict the wall characteristics of the intracranial arteries. The aim of this study was to explain the relationship between the remodeling patterns and acute ischemic stroke in patients with atherosclerotic middle cerebral artery (MCA) stenosis using HR-MRI. Materials and Methods: From August 2015 to May 201...
