Backround: Dacron, polytetrafluoroethylene, great saphenous vein, and bovine pericardium are the commonly used as patch materials. However, there is no study about autologous pericardial as a patch material in carotid endarterectomy surgery.

Area-preserving mapping of 3D ultrasound carotid artery images using density-equalizing reference map [PDF]
Carotid atherosclerosis is a focal disease at the bifurcations of the carotid artery. To quantitatively monitor the local changes in the vessel-wall-plus-plaque thickness (VWT) and compare the VWT distributions for different patients or for the same patients at different ultrasound scanning sessions, a mapping technique is required to adjust for the ...

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]
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

Trusting Machine Learning Results from Medical Procedures in the Operating Room [PDF]
Machine learning can be used to analyse physiological data for several purposes. Detection of cerebral ischemia is an achievement that would have high impact on patient care. We attempted to study if collection of continous physiological data from non-invasive monitors, and analysis with machine learning could detect cerebral ischemia in tho different ...

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.
