Abstract:
Ischemic stroke is closely associated with carotid atherosclerosis.Detecting carotid plaque components (including fibrous Cap,lipid core,hemorrhage,and calcification) using high-resolution 3.0T magnetic resonance imaging contributes to evaluate the risk of ischemic stroke and guide treatment.This article reviews the research status of magnetic resonance imaging of carotid atherosclerotic plaque components.
