Prediction of the time period of stroke based on ultrasound image analysis of initially asymptomatic carotid plaques
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2015)Non-invasive ultrasound imaging of carotid plaques can provide information on the characteristics of the arterial wall including the size, morphology and texture of the atherosclerotic plaques. Several studies were carried ...
