A promising marker for carotid artery disease: Monocyte to high-density lipoprotein ratio (MHR)
Objectives: The aim of our study was to evaluate the relation between monocyte/high-density lipoprotein(HDL) ratio value and carotid artery stenosis in patients who underwent carotid angiography.Methods: To our study, 94 participants were enrolled (68 ...

Optimal Treatment of Carotid Artery Disease
Extracranial carotid artery disease accounts for approximately 25% of ischemic strokes. Although carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is the established gold standard for carotid revascularization, carotid artery angioplasty and stenting (CAS) is continually developing into a safer and more efficacious method of stroke prevention. Embolic protection, improving

Carotid artery stenosis typically causes hemispheric neurologic effects by atheroembolism. Nonhemispheric symptoms, such as syncope, are generally not attributable to extracranial carotid disease.

Arterial Remodeling in the Subclinical Carotid Artery Disease
ObjectivesWe sought to identify clinical and/or plaque characteristics that affect atherosclerotic disease progression and arterial remodeling in the carotid artery with subclinical stenosis.BackgroundIncreasing severity of stenosis has been associated with a higher risk of stroke.

Segmentation of carotid vessel wall using U-Net and segmentation average network [PDF]
Segmentation of carotid vessel wall is required in vessel wall volume (VWV) and local vessel-wall-plus-plaque thickness (VWT) quantification of the carotid artery. Manual segmentation of the vessel wall is time-consuming and prone to interobserver variability. In this paper, we proposed a convolution neural network to segment the common carotid artery (

Carotid artery stenting by non-femoral arterial approach in patients with difficult anatomy
Background Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) and carotid artery stenting (CAS) are safe, effective, and standard methods to treat significant carotid artery stenosis. CAS is generally performed through femoral arterial access.
