Is measurement of TPV superior to IMT and TPA for assessing response to antiatherosclerotic therapy?
Measurement of carotid total plaque volume is a superior imaging biomarker compared to intima-media thickness and total plaque area for assessing response to antiatherosclerotic therapy.
For assessment of response to antiatherosclerotic therapy, measurement of TPV is superior to both IMT and TPA.
