Spotty Carotid Plaques Are Associated with Inflammation and the Occurrence of Cerebrovascular Symptoms
BACKGROUND: Echolucent carotid plaques have been related to an increased risk of ischemic cerebrovascular events. The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether a new objective ultrasonographic parameter, the statistical geometric feature (SGF), reflecting spottiness of carotid plaques, can be...
