Objectives To describe normal and pathological findings with three-dimensional (3D)
ultrasound of the carotid bifurcation. Methods Patients admitted to our ultrasound laboratory …

Objectives: Several specialists use three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound as adjuvant imaging
technique in their clinical practice. It has been applied to study carotid plaque morphology …

The aim of this study was to establish the reproducibility of sequential three-dimensional
(3D) ultrasound reconstructions of an identified segment of the carotid artery bifurcation in …

This chapter was intended to provide an overview of ultrasound duplex scanning at the
human carotid bifurcation. Although results of clinical studies are useful in patient …

Although ultrasonography is an important cost-effective imaging modality, technical
improvements are needed before its full potential is realized for accurate and reproducible …

Stroke secondary to atherosclerotic disease remains one of the leading causes of death.
Ischemia from severe, flow limiting stenosis due to atherosclerotic disease involving the …

Purpose: Management decisions regarding carotid artery disease are critically dependent
on stenosis but have been made difficult because of conflicting methods used to determine …

The combination of a B-mode imaging system and a single range-gate pulsed Doppler flow
velocity detector (duplex scanner) has become the standard noninvasive method for …

Background and Purpose—It has been proved that symptomatic patients with severe carotid
stenosis benefit from endarterectomy. Currently used methods for quantitation of the severity …

Background We evaluated the utility of 3-dimensional (3-D) ultrasound imaging for
assessment of carotid artery stenosis, as compared with similar assessment via magnetic …
