Carotid intraplaque neovascularization for predicting ischemic cerebrovascular events in patients with hypertension. [PDF]

Quant Imaging Med Surg
Patients with hypertension are prone to developing carotid atherosclerotic plaques, and unstable plaques are a key contributor to ischemic cerebrovascular events (ICEs), including transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) and ischemic strokes. Intraplaque neovascularization (IPN), the formation of microvessels within plaques, is a recognized marker of plaque ...

Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound to Assess Carotid Intraplaque Neovascularization [PDF]

Ultrasound in Medicine & Biology, 2020
Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) is increasingly being used to identify patients with carotid plaques that are vulnerable to rupture, so-called vulnerable atherosclerotic plaques, by assessment of intraplaque neovascularization. A complete overview of the strengths and limitations of carotid CEUS is currently not available.

Impact of H-Type Hypertension on Intraplaque Neovascularization Assessed by Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound. [PDF]

J Atheroscler Thromb, 2022
H-type hypertension is connected with carotid atherosclerotic plaques and stroke, whereas neovascularization is a dominant contributor to plaque vulnerability. However, the correlation between H-type hypertension and plaque vulnerability remains unclear.

Multimodal ultrasound-based carotid plaque risk biomarkers predict poor functional outcome in patients with ischemic stroke or TIA

BMC Neurology, 2023
Background Carotid vulnerable plaque is an important risk factor for stroke occurrence and recurrence. However, the relationship between risk parameters related to carotid vulnerable plaque (plaque size, echogenicity, intraplaque neovascularization, and ...

The Course of Carotid Plaque Vulnerability Assessed by Advanced Neurosonology

Frontiers in Neurology, 2021
Background: Carotid artery atherosclerosis is a major risk factor for ischemic stroke. This risk is related to plaque vulnerability and is characterized by plaque morphology, intraplaque neovascularization, and cerebral microembolization.

The Monocyte-to-Lymphocyte Ratio Was Associated With Intraplaque Neovascularization of the Carotid Artery on AngioPLUS. [PDF]

Brain Behav
ABSTRACT Background The monocyte–lymphocyte ratio (MLR) is a hematological test parameter that reflects the status of both monocytes and lymphocytes as inflammatory cells. This study aims to investigate the relationship between MLR and carotid intraplaque neovascularization (IPN) in patients ...

Carotid intraplaque neovascularization predicts coronary artery disease and cardiovascular events. [PDF]

Eur Heart J Cardiovasc Imaging, 2019
Abstract Aims It is thought that the majority of cardiovascular (CV) events are caused by vulnerable plaque. Such lesions are rupture prone, in part due to neovascularization. It is postulated that plaque vulnerability may be a systemic process and that vulnerable lesions may co-exist at multiple ...

The utility of ultrasound and computed tomography in the assessment of carotid artery plaque vulnerability–A mini review

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
As the burden of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events continues to increase, emerging evidence supports the concept of plaque vulnerability as a strong marker of plaque rupture, and embolization. Qualitative assessment of the plaque can identify the
