Does 3D ultrasound provide comparable haemodynamic wall parameter estimates to MRI when combined with computational fluid dynamics in carotid arteries?
Effect estimate: average correlation strength >0.60
3D ultrasound combined with computational fluid dynamics provides comparable hemodynamic parameter estimates to MRI in superficial arteries, offering a potentially more cost-effective alternative.
Glor et al. (2004) reported an observational. Three-dimensional ultrasound (3DUS) vs. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was evaluated on Haemodynamic wall parameters (WSS, OSI, WSSG, WSSAG) (average correlation strength >0.60). Three-dimensional ultrasound and MRI showed good qualitative agreement for carotid artery haemodynamic parameters (average correlation strength >0.60) with comparable root mean square errors.
