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 ...

International Journal of Vascular Medicine, 2010 The technical factors and surgical methods employed in carotid endarterectomy are controversial. In particular, whether or not to use an indwelling arterial shunt during carotid endarterectomy remains a source of conflict.

Stratification of carotid atheromatous plaque using interpretable deep learning methods on B-mode ultrasound images [PDF]
, 2022 Carotid atherosclerosis is the major cause of ischemic stroke resulting in significant rates of mortality and disability annually. Early diagnosis of such cases is of great importance, since it enables clinicians to apply a more effective treatment strategy. This paper introduces an interpretable classification approach of carotid ultrasound images for

Analysis of the Effect of Atherosclerosis with the Changes of Hematocrit: A Computational Study on the Hemodynamics of Carotid Artery [PDF]
2020 2nd International Conference on Advanced Information and
Communication Technology (ICAICT) (pp. 336-341). IEEE, 2021 Atherosclerosis is a state wherein plaque (fat, cholesterol, and different substances) develops inside the veins that in the end prompts carotid artery stenosis which is a phase of narrowing in the huge courses situated on either side of the neck that convey blood to the brain, face, and head.

Carotid plaque volume in patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy
British Journal of Surgery, 2018 The main indication for carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is severity of carotid artery stenosis, even though most strokes in carotid disease are embolic.

Robust Machine Learning in Critical Care -- Software Engineering and Medical Perspectives [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Using machine learning in clinical practice poses hard requirements on explainability, reliability, replicability and robustness of these systems. Therefore, developing reliable software for monitoring critically ill patients requires close collaboration between physicians and software engineers.

British Journal of Anaesthesia, 2007 Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is performed to prevent embolic stroke in patients with atheromatous disease at the carotid bifurcation. There is now substantial evidence to support early operation in symptomatic patients, ideally within 2 weeks of the last neurological symptoms.

Düzce Tıp Fakültesi Dergisi, 2023 Aim: Carotid artery stenting is thought to result in better outcomes when compared to carotid endarterectomy. To evaluate this hypothesis, a far-reaching of published randomized controlled trials were performed to evaluate the short-term outcomes of ...
