Quantitative Evaluation of Carotid Artery Stenosis by Multi‐VENC 4D Flow MRI: Incorporating Turbulent Kinetic Energy for Clinical Validity

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cervical internal carotid artery stenosis (ICS) is a recognized risk factor for ischemic stroke, yet morphological severity alone may not fully reflect hemodynamic alterations. Turbulent kinetic energy (TKE), derived from multi‐velocity‐encoding (multi‐VENC) four‐dimensional (4D) flow MRI, may provide a robust marker for ICS ...

Imaging Characteristics of Persistent Carotid‐Vertebrobasilar Anastomoses Detected by Ultrasound

open access: yesJournal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
In this case series, we aimed to evaluate the ultrasonic characteristics of 35 patients with persistent carotid‐vertebrobasilar anastomoses (PCVBA), a rare variant between the anterior and posterior cerebral circulation. Ultrasound detected seven (30.4%, 7/23) primitive trigeminal arteries (PTA), eight (100%, 8/8) primitive hypoglossal arteries (PHA ...

External carotid endarterectomy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Vascular Surgery, 1984
Forty-nine external carotid revascularization procedures were performed in 36 patients. Indications included transient ischemic attacks, amaurosis fugax, and the procedure as a prelude to extracranial-to-intracranial bypass. Twenty patients had a preoperative neurologic defect.

Protected carotid-artery stenting versus endarterectomy in high-risk patients.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2004
BACKGROUND Carotid endarterectomy is more effective than medical management in the prevention of stroke in patients with severe symptomatic or asymptomatic atherosclerotic carotid-artery stenosis. Stenting with the use of an emboli-protection device is a

Serious outcomes among emergency department patients with presyncope: A systematic review

open access: yesAcademic Emergency Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Syncope is transient loss of consciousness, and in presyncope, patients experience same prodromal symptoms without losing consciousness. While studies have extensively reported the risk of serious outcome among emergency department (ED) syncope, the outcome for patients with presyncope and their management are not well studied.

Changing Trends in Carotid Revascularization in Australia: A Nationwide Study Over 30 Years

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Carotid artery stenosis is one of the causes of acute ischaemic stroke. Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) and carotid artery stenting (CAS) are the main procedural treatment options. This study investigates the changing trends in carotid revascularisation in Australia over the last 30 years.
