Depuis 1986, après les travaux du groupe de Pignoli en Italie, la mesure échographique de
l'épaisseur de l'intima-media (IMT) de l'artère carotide est considérée comme un outil très …

Le remodelage artériel correspond à toute modification de la structure (épaisseur intima-
média et diamètre artériel) et de la fonction (ie rigidité) artérielle au cours de processus …

Since 1986, published from the P. Pignoli's group in Italy, the measurement by B-Mode
Ultrasound of the carotid Intima Media Thickness is considered a very important tool for the …

Ziel: Die Intima-Media-Dicke der Arteria carotis communis (CCA-IMT) wird meist mithilfe von
B-Mode-Ultraschallbildern gemessen. Eine andere Möglichkeit der CCA-IMT-Bestimmung …

Purpose This paper details the development of a fully automatic Computer Aided Detection
(CAD) tool that is applied to the segmentation and measurement of the Intima Media …

Background: Morphological characteristics of the common carotid artery (CCA) in parallel
with calculation of multiple traditional risk scores (Framingham (FS), Framingham vascular …

Objective—The intima-media thickness (IMT) of the carotid artery is dependent on the risk
factor load during life and correlates well with the degree of atherosclerosis, also in other …

Background Intima-media thickness (IMT) of the common carotid artery (CCA), measured
with external vascular ultrasound, has been widely used in clinical trials as a surrogate …

In advanced countries the incidence of cardiovascular diseases is constantly increasing.
During the last century many resources were employed to investigate atherosclerosis in …

Is more than one projection of the common carotid artery needed for either risk assessment
or evaluation of IMT progression? This seems unlikely on the basis of available data. Proof …
