3-D Registration on Carotid Artery imaging data: MRI for different timesteps [PDF]
A common problem which is faced by the researchers when dealing with arterial carotid imaging data is the registration of the geometrical structures between different imaging modalities or different timesteps. The use of the "Patient Position" DICOM field is not adequate to achieve accurate results due to the fact that the carotid artery is a ...

Redo Carotid Endarterectomy Versus Primary Carotid Endarterectomy [PDF]
90 Background/Purpose: Several authorities have recently advocated carotid stenting for recurrent carotid stenosis because of the perception that redo surgery carries a higher complication rate than primary carotid endarterectomy (CEA).

Carotid endarterectomy: The procedure of choice for carotid stenosis
Ischemic stroke is the commonest cause of neurological morbidity and mortality. Carotid endarterectomy has been shown to be beneficial in preventing ischemic strokes in patients with significant stenosis of the carotid artery, both in symptomatic and ...

Macrophage HM13/SPP Enhances Foamy Macrophage Formation and Atherogenesis
Previous research suggests that AIP may prevent atherogenic foamy macrophage formation. This study reveals that AIP, via its chaperone interaction with AHR, inhibits p38‐c‐JUN‐mediated transactivation of HM13, which encodes the ERAD protease HM13/SPP. HM13/SPP promotes foamy macrophage formation in addition to atherogenesis and plaque foamy macrophage ...

Visualizing Carotid Blood Flow Simulations for Stroke Prevention [PDF]
In this work, we investigate how concepts from medical flow visualization can be applied to enhance stroke prevention diagnostics. Our focus lies on carotid stenoses, i.e., local narrowings of the major brain-supplying arteries, which are a frequent cause of stroke.

The present study shows that macrophage WEE1 drives NF‐κB activation and inflammatory atherosclerosis by directly phosphorylating p65 at S536. This finding illustrates a macrophage‐specific WEE1‐p65 axis in regulating inflammatory atherosclerosis and points out new directions to broaden the clinical applications for WEE1 inhibitors in atherosclerosis ...

Label Propagation for 3D Carotid Vessel Wall Segmentation and Atherosclerosis Diagnosis [PDF]
Carotid vessel wall segmentation is a crucial yet challenging task in the computer-aided diagnosis of atherosclerosis. Although numerous deep learning models have achieved remarkable success in many medical image segmentation tasks, accurate segmentation of carotid vessel wall on magnetic resonance (MR) images remains challenging, due to limited ...

External carotid endarterectomy [PDF]
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.
