Value of superb micro-vascular imaging in predicting ischemic stroke in patients with carotid atherosclerotic plaques

BACKGROUND: Unstable carotid atherosclerotic plaques are prone to cause ischemic stroke. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) is the primary method of assessing plaque stability, but CEUS cannot be a method for screening for unstable plaque. The emergence of superb micro-vascular imaging (SMI) offers...
