The purpose of this study is to investigate the diagnostic potential of color-coded Doppler
sonography (CCDS), power-Doppler (PD) and B-flow ultrasound in assessing the degree of …

Purpose To evaluate the value of vascular ultrasound determining the pre-interventional
degree of distal stenosis in the extracranial internal carotid artery (ICA) by means of color …

Objectives: To determine the variability of measurement of stenosis of the internal carotid
artery (ICA) using Doppler ultrasound, digital subtraction angiography (DSA) and the three …

PURPOSE: Clinical decision making for carotid surgery depends largely upon stenosis
grade. While digital subtraction angiography remains the gold standard for stenosis grading …

Purpose Visualization of carotid artery stenosis is important to improve our understanding of
the etiology of ischemic stroke. Two sonographic methods are available for visualizing …

PURPOSE:: Carotid stenosis is usually determined on Doppler ultrasound from velocity
readings. We wondered if angiography-style stenosis measurements applied to ultrasound …

Background Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is accepted as a primary modality to treat carotid
stenosis. The accuracy of measuring carotid stenosis is important for indication of the CEA …

Aim: Pre-surgical evaluation of the extent of internal carotid artery stenosis (ICA) according
to NASCT criteria using digital 3D ultrasound methods. Material/Methods: In a prospective …

Objective Duplex ultrasound (DUS) and computed tomography angiography (CTA) are both
used as first-line noninvasive methods to investigate patients for internal carotid artery (ICA) …

Objectives duplex ultrasound has replaced angiography prior to carotid endarterectomy
(CEA) in many institutions. However, the indications for CEA are based on angiographically …
