In the past few decades, imaging has been developed to a high level of sophistication.
Improvements from one-dimension (1D) to 2D images, and from 2D images to 3D models …

In this paper recent advances in vascular ultrasound imaging technology are discussed,
including three-dimensional ultrasound (3DUS), contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and …

Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases induced by atherosclerosis (AS) have
become the dominant cause of disability and mortality throughout the world. The typical …

Objective The aim was to evaluate the relationship between asymptomatic carotid stenosis
(ACS) of any severity and cognitive impairment and to determine whether there is evidence …

Carotid plaque segmentation in ultrasound longitudinal B-mode images using deep learning
is presented in this work. We report on 101 severely stenotic carotid plaque patients. A …

Identifying atherosclerotic disease is the mainstay for the correct diagnosis of the large artery
atherosclerosis ischemic stroke subtype and for choosing the right therapeutic strategy in …

Motion extracted from the carotid artery wall provides unique information for vascular health
evaluation. Carotid artery longitudinal wall motion corresponds to the multiphasic arterial …

Objective: As a vascular risk factor, carotid atherosclerosis is crucial to cognitive impairment.
While carotid intima-media thickness, carotid artery plaque, and carotid stenosis can reflect …

Atherosclerotic plaque in the carotid artery is the main cause of ischemic stroke, with a high
incidence rate among people over 65 years. A timely and precise diagnosis can help to …
