Carotid Artery Stenting for Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis: What We Need to Know for Treatment Decision [PDF]
A clinical decision on the treatment of asymptomatic carotid stenosis is challenging, unlike symptomatic carotid stenosis. Carotid artery stenting (CAS) has been recommended as an alternative to carotid endarterectomy (CEA) based on the finding that the ...

Computed poststenotic flow instabilities correlate phenotypically with vibrations measured using laser Doppler vibrometry : perspectives for a promising in vivo device for early detection of moderate and severe carotid stenosis [PDF]
Early detection of asymptomatic carotid stenosis is crucial for treatment planning in the prevention of ischemic stroke. Auscultation, the current first-line screening methodology, comes with severe limitations that create urge for novel and robust ...

Measuring carotid stenosis [PDF]
Comparing a new test with a standard involves measuring disagreement. In the case of measuring carotid artery stenosis, some of the disagreement between different tests is because of inherent differences in how the stenosis is demonstrated (test characteristics). This is what we are most interested in when assessing a new technology.

Carotid stenting technique and review of literature – What every resident should know [PDF]
Carotid artery stenosis is a prevalent and substantial cause of ischemic stroke; however, in patients who have significant symptomatic stenosis, carotid revascularization can lower their chances of having an ischemic stroke.

Carotid endarterectomy for symptomatic carotid stenosis [PDF]
Severe narrowing (stenosis) of the carotid artery is an important cause of stroke. Surgical treatment (carotid endarterectomy) may reduce the risk of stroke, but carries a risk of operative complications.To determine the balance of benefit versus risk of endarterectomy plus best medical management compared with best medical management alone in patients

Neutrophil extracellular traps induce thrombogenicity in severe carotid stenosis
Background Severe carotid stenosis is a common cause of stroke. In addition, previous clinical studies revealed that patients symptomatic of carotid stenosis suffer from increased episodes of stroke compared with their asymptomatic counterparts. However,
