Stenting versus endarterectomy for treatment of carotid-artery stenosis.
New England Journal of Medicine, 2010 BACKGROUND Carotid-artery stenting and carotid endarterectomy are both options for treating carotid-artery stenosis, an important cause of stroke. METHODS We randomly assigned patients with symptomatic or asymptomatic carotid stenosis to undergo ...

Cerebral Air Embolism and Vasospasm after Carotid Revascularization: A Case Report
Case Reports in Neurology, 2020 Cerebral air embolism can be of venous and arterial origin and cause severe medical complication. Vasospasm is a severe complication of carotid artery stenting.

Classification of Pressure Gradient of Human Common Carotid Artery and Ascending Aorta on the Basis of Age and Gender [PDF]
International Journal of computer Applications, Volume 145, No.1,
July 2016, 2017 The current work is done to see which artery has more chance of having cardiovascular diseases by measuring value of pressure gradient in the common carotid artery (CCA) and ascending aorta according to age and gender. Pressure gradient is determined in the CCA and ascending aorta of presumed healthy volunteers, having age between 10 and 60 years.

Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2019 Importance Several trials have observed higher rates of perioperative stroke following transfemoral carotid artery stenting compared with carotid endarterectomy. Transcarotid artery revascularization with flow reversal was recently introduced for carotid

An Integrated Visual Analytics System for Studying Clinical Carotid Artery Plaques [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Carotid artery plaques can cause arterial vascular diseases such as stroke and myocardial infarction, posing a severe threat to human life. However, the current clinical examination mainly relies on a direct assessment by physicians of patients' clinical indicators and medical images, lacking an integrated visualization tool for analyzing the ...

Area-preserving mapping of 3D ultrasound carotid artery images using density-equalizing reference map [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 67(9), 1507-1517
(2020), 2018 Carotid atherosclerosis is a focal disease at the bifurcations of the carotid artery. To quantitatively monitor the local changes in the vessel-wall-plus-plaque thickness (VWT) and compare the VWT distributions for different patients or for the same patients at different ultrasound scanning sessions, a mapping technique is required to adjust for the ...

Carotid artery stenting: Current state of evidence and future directions
Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 2019 Both carotid endarterectomy (CEA) and carotid artery stenting (CAS) are common treatments for carotid artery stenosis. Several randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have compared CEA to CAS in the treatment of carotid artery stenosis.

Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery, 2019 Background Femoral access is the traditional approach for endovascular carotid artery stenting. Radial access is increasingly used as an alternative approach due to its known anatomical advantages in patients with unfavorable aortic arch morphology via ...

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2014 Carotid artery stenting (CAS) has achieved clinical equipoise with carotid endarterectomy (CEA), as evidenced by 2 large U.S. randomized clinical trials, multiple pivotal registry trials, and 2 multispecialty guideline documents endorsed by 14 professional societies.

Outcomes of carotid artery stenting at a high-volume Brazilian interventional neuroradiology center
Clinics, 2015 OBJECTIVES: Carotid artery stenting is an emerging revascularization alternative to carotid endarterectomy. However, guidelines have recommended carotid artery stenting only if the rate of periprocedural stroke or death is < 6% among symptomatic patients
