Abstract

Results of B-mode imaging of extracranial carotid arteries in patients selected for surgery as compared with histologic results of the observations of the samples obtained by endarterectomy. Shrinkage effects of the histologic samples were taken into consideration. Several bidimensional images of atherosclerotic lesions, as obtained by ultrasound at different incident angles, were used to establish their maximum thickness. The maximum degree of the vessel stenosis calculated by ultrasound showed a high correlation (p< 0.001) compared with the one obtained by histology. Relationships among the amount of calcium (p <0.03); necrotic core p< 0.06); echogenic types, ie, soft, mixed, and hard; have been suggested by a statistical trend.
