Methods:The results of color duplex ultrasonography(Duplex) and digital subtraction angiography(DSA) examination of 86 patients with essential hypertension complicated silent cerebral infarction were analyzed.The incidence of intra-and extracranial arterial stenosis and arthrosclerosis plaque were calculated.The comparative value of Duplex and DSA for evaluating atherosclerosis of extracranial carotid artery was analyzed using statistic methods. Results:The incidence of arthrosclerosis plaque was higher in SCI group than that in normal control group(62.79%,24%,P
