Variations, relations and clinical significance of carotid arterial system in anterior neck: a cadaveric study [PDF]
Background: The common carotid, internal and external carotid arteries and their branches serve as major source of blood supply in head-neck region of human and are often encountered during numerous surgical and clinical interventions of neck.Methods: We

Hybrid Open and Endovascular Management of a Gunshot Wound to the Carotid Artery
In addition to standard open surgical techniques, major hemorrhage is increasingly being managed using hybrid (open and endovascular) surgery. We present a case of hybrid management of a carotid artery injury secondary to an oropharyngeal gunshot wound.

Effect of neuropeptide Y on norepinephrine-induced constriction in the rabbit facial artery after carotid artery occlusion [PDF]
Background/Aim. Atherosclerotic-occlusive changes could be observed in orofacial branches of the external carotid artery. Atherosclerosis-induced ischemia caused alteration in production and release of endothelial factors.

Automatic Diagnosis of Carotid Atherosclerosis Using a Portable Freehand 3D Ultrasound Imaging System [PDF]
The objective of this study is to develop a deep-learning based detection and diagnosis technique for carotid atherosclerosis using a portable freehand 3D ultrasound (US) imaging system. A total of 127 3D carotid artery scans were acquired using a portable 3D US system which consisted of a handheld US scanner and an electromagnetic tracking system. A U-
