Improved stroke risk stratification in carotid atherosclerosis: integrating intraplaque neovascularization into Carotid Plaque-RADS [PDF]
BMC Medical ImagingIntroduction This study evaluates whether IPN, as assessed by contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS), enhances stroke risk stratification within the Carotid Plaque-RADS framework.

Assessment of Carotid Intraplaque Neovascularization Using Superb Microvascular Imaging in High Risk of Stroke Individuals: Results From a Community-Based Study [PDF]
Frontiers in Neurology, 2019 Background: Improved stroke risk stratification may improve stroke prevention. We aimed to study the value of a novel Doppler method, superb microvascular imaging (SMI), in correlating plaque thickness and evidence of intra-plaque neovascularization with

Consistency of superb microvascular imaging and contrast-enhanced ultrasonography in detection of intraplaque neovascularization: A meta-analysis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2020 This meta-analysis assesses the consistency of superb microvascular imaging (SMI) and contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) in detecting intraplaque neovascularization (IPN). We searched PubMed, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, and CBM databases.

Data on consistency among different methods to assess atherosclerotic plaque echogenicity on standard ultrasound and intraplaque neovascularization on contrast-enhanced ultrasound imaging in human carotid artery [PDF]
Data in Brief, 2016 Here we provide the correlation among different carotid ultrasound (US) variables to assess echogenicity n standard carotid US and to assess intraplaque neovascularization on contrast enhanced US. We recruited 45 consecutive subjects with an asymptomatic≥

Acta Physiologica, 2015 AbstractAtherosclerosis is a continuous pathological process that starts early in life and progresses frequently to unstable plaques. Plaque rupture leads to deleterious consequences such as acute coronary syndrome, stroke and atherothrombosis. The vulnerable lesion has several structural and functional hallmarks that distinguish it from the stable ...

The association of lipoprotein(a) and intraplaque neovascularization in patients with carotid stenosis: a retrospective study. [PDF]
BMC Cardiovasc Disord, 2021 Abstract Background Lipoprotein(a) is genetically determined and increasingly recognized as a major risk factor for arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease. We examined whether plasma lipoprotein(a) concentrations were associated with intraplaque neovascularization (IPN) grade in patients with carotid stenosis and in ...
