Increased carotid artery intima–media thickness (IMT), measured by ultrasound, is related to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Since presence of echolucent plaques increases the risk further, we investigated if echogenecity of the carotid intima–media complex is related to markers of cardiovascular risk. Our aim was therefore to investigate if intima–media echogenecity is related to cardiovascular...
The echogenecity measured by ultrasound of atherosclerotic plaques is related to future cardiovascular events. The aim of the present study is to relate the grey scale median of the intima–media complex (IM-GSM) of the common carotid artery (CCA) to the echogenecity of carotid plaques.In the Prospective Study of the Vasculature in Uppsala Seniors (PIVUS) study, a population-based study of 1016 subjects...
