Key result
High-resolution B-mode ultrasound methods are described for evaluating the effect of isradipine on lesion progression in patients with asymptomatic carotid artery atherosclerosis.
Why the study?
Does isradipine affect lesion progression or regression in patients with asymptomatic carotid artery atherosclerosis?
Does isradipine affect lesion progression or regression in patients with asymptomatic carotid artery atherosclerosis?
High-resolution B-mode ultrasound provides a reproducible, noninvasive method to measure intima-media thickness and monitor the effects of interventions like isradipine on early carotid atherosclerosis.

Ultrasound enables reproducible monitoring of carotid intima-media thickness; leaves open isradipine's effect on asymptomatic lesion progression.
Bond et al. (1990) conducted a review in asymptomatic carotid artery atherosclerosis. isradipine was evaluated on rates of lesion progression or regression. High-resolution B-mode ultrasound methods are described for evaluating the effect of isradipine on lesion progression in patients with asymptomatic carotid artery atherosclerosis.
