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]
, 2020 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]
Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2003 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]
Romanian Journal of Neurology, 2022 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.

Neutrophil extracellular traps induce thrombogenicity in severe carotid stenosis
Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, 2021 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,

European Heart Journal, Supplement, 2020 Carotid atherosclerotic plaque is encountered frequently in patients at high cardiovascular risk, especially in the elderly. When plaque reaches 50% of carotid lumen, it induces haemodynamically significant carotid stenosis, for which management is ...
