MRI of carotid atherosclerosis [PDF]
Journal of Nuclear Cardiology, 2008 MRI of carotid atherosclerosis provides a unique method to characterize plaque morphology and tissue composition, as well as, to a certain extent, plaque inflammation. Because of its noninvasiveness, it has many current and potential applications: the fact that it is the only technique that can examine the fibrous cap status in vivo makes it a powerful
