Abstract:
Objective To investigate the correlation between intraplaque neovascularization(IPN)parameters using ultrasound lo-calization microscopy(ULM)and pathological results.Methods Atherosclerosis of the carotid artery in rabbit was induced using balloon catheter damage and a high-cholesterol diet.ULM technology was used to measure the IPN,and the parameters of neovascularization density,diameter,distortion and velocity were quantified,and compared with pathological results,to evaluate the reliability of ULM tech-nique in detecting and measuring the parameters of IPN.Results ULM technology can perform ultra-high resolution imaging of the IPN in rabbit carotid atherosclerotic plaques,and can accurately measured the density of IPN.The correlation with pathological diagnosis was good(r=0.915,P<0.05).Conclusion ULM technique has a certain reliability in detecting the IPN in rabbit carotid atherosclerotic plaque.
