NORTH AMERICAN SYMPTOMATIC CAROTID ENDARTERECTOMY TRIAL The North American Symptomatic Carotid Endarterectomy Trial (NASCET) answered practical questions relating to the efficacy and safety of carotid endarterectomy based on degree of carotid stenosis and accompanying medical comorbidity in patients with symptomatic carotid stenosis (The Canadian Cooperative Study Group, 1998; North American Sy...
Background and Purpose—The extensive use of ultrasound examination of carotid arteries has revealed stenosis in many asymptomatic subjects, and clinical studies have shown that carotid stenosis is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease and death. However, information on stenosis as detected in a general population and its relation to mortality is scarce. The purpose of this population-based s...
INTRODUCTION Branches from the cervical portion of the internal carotid artery are rare. In most cases, atherosclerotic stenosis is found at the bifurcation of the internal and external carotid arteries. However, when associated with atherosclerotic carotid artery disease, the origin of the rare branches arising from the internal carotid artery can be another site of stenosis. This report descr...

background and aims. the purpose of this study was to identify patients at the risk of cerebrovascular attack (cva) by detecting calcified carotid artery atheroma (ccaa) in panoramic radiography and evaluating their risk factors. materials and methods. a total of 960 panoramic radiographs of patients above 40 years old were evaluated. doppler sonography (ds) was performed for patients who show...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Previous studies have reported that carotid atherosclerosis frequently can be seen in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients. This study sought to determine the prevalence of compositional features in subclinical carotid atherosclerosis by MRI in CAD patients. METHODS Ninety-six subjects with suspected CAD but free of neurological symptoms underwent coronary CT angiogra...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Previous studies quantifying moderate and severe carotid stenosis by direct millimeter measures on CT angiography (CTA) did not consider how prevalence and gender may influence classification cutoff values. MATERIALS AND METHODS Three hundred nineteen carotid arteries were evaluated in consecutive patients with known or suspected carotid artery disease. Millimeter measu...
Doppler analysis of flow in intracranial arteries is now possible using a 2 MHz probe allowing sufficient penetration of bone to obtain signals noninvasively. Thirty-two normal subjects, and 11 patients with cerebrovascular diseases including vasospasm following subarachnoid hemorrhage, middle cerebral artery stenosis, and extracranial internal carotid artery stenosis were studied by transcrani...
Purpose. To correlate ultrasonographic peak systolic velocity (US-PSV) and 64-row multidetector computed tomography angiography (MDCTA) with advanced vessel analysis (AVA) software in the quantification of 50-70% carotid artery stenosis. Materials and methods. 199 consecutive patients (247 arteries) with internal carotid artery (ICA) or third proximal bifurcation stenosis. Each patient was stud...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We sought to determine the risks of stroke, myocardial ischemia, and vascular death in patients with asymptomatic carotid stenosis. METHODS Six hundred ninety-six patients with asymptomatic carotid stenosis referred to the Doppler laboratory were followed prospectively for a mean time of 41 months. These patients were studied both clinically and by carotid Doppler ultra...
