Assessing Impact of High-Dose Pitavastatin on Carotid Artery Elasticity with Speckle-Tracking Strain Imaging

Aim: Speckle-tracking imaging has been introduced for the precise assessment of vessel mechanics. However, there are no data on the role of this imaging tool in assessing the changes in vasculature with statin therapy, which is known to enhance vascular elasticity. Methods: This study was a prospect...
