Carotid intima-medial thickness measured on multiple ultrasound frames: evaluation of a DICOM-based software system

BACKGROUND: Carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) measured by B-mode ultrasonography is a marker of atherosclerosis and is commonly used as an outcome in intervention trials. We have developed DICOM-based software that measures CIMT rapidly on multiple end-diastolic image frames. The aims of this st...
