Are surface and multiple calcifications in carotid atherosclerotic plaques associated with intraplaque hemorrhage?
Surface and multiple calcifications in carotid plaques are independently associated with intraplaque hemorrhage, suggesting quantity and location of calcification play a role in its occurrence.
Surface calcification and multiple calcifications in carotid atherosclerotic plaques are independently associated with the presence of IPH, suggesting that both quantity and location of calcification may play important roles in the occurrence of IPH. These findings may provide novel insights for understanding mechanisms of IPH.
