Impact analysis of different CT configurations of carotid artery plaque calcifications on cerebrovascular events
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: CT is considered the standard reference both for
quantification and characterization of carotid artery calcifications. Our aim was to investigate
the relationship among different types of calcium configurations detected with CT within the
plaque with a novel classification and to investigate the prevalence of cerebrovascular
events. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Seven hundred ninety patients (men= 332; mean age,
69.7 [SD, 13] years; 508 symptomatic for cerebrovascular symptoms and 282 asymptomatic) …
