High-Resolution CT Imaging of Carotid Artery Atherosclerotic Plaques

Structured PICO

Does CTA accurately reflect plaque composition compared to histologic examination in carotid atherosclerotic plaques?

High-resolution CTA is a viable non-invasive imaging modality for determining the composition of carotid atherosclerotic plaques, correlating with histologic findings.

Abstract

The composition of carotid atherosclerotic plaques determined by CTA reflects plaque composition defined by histologic examination.
