Why Are We Still Debating Criteria For Carotid Artery Stenosis?

Di: Everly

Abstract. Purpose We sought to determine the diagnostic agreement between the revised ultrasonography approach by the German Society of Ultrasound in Medicine (DEGUM) and the

Carotid Artery Stenosis Criteria

Broad acceptance of these recommendations will enhance the accuracy of the detection of clinically-relevant ICA stenosis and further reduce the variability in grading of ICA

These data were analyzed in an electronic database using the IAC and SRU threshold criteria to determine the degree of carotid stenosis. Patients with normal arteries,

The study was analyzed considering the degree of stenosis and the asymptomatic and symptomatic sides. They showed an association between impaired CVR and carotid occlusion

Abstract Background. Accurate assessment of carotid stenosis severity is important for proper patient management. The present study aimed to compare the evaluation of carotid stenosis severity using four duplex sonography (DUS)

Abstract: The risk of new or recurrent stroke is high among patients with extracranial carotid artery stenosis and the benefit of carotid revascularization is associated to the degree of

Carotid artery stenosis causes up to 20% of ischemic strokes. Stenting is used as an alternative to endarterectomy in symptomatic patients. Each commercially available stent

All of the articles describe in detail the empirical observations from large numbers of patients studied in attempts to discern which people have “significant” carotid stenosis (1, 2).

Of the 1000 patients considered, 850 met the eligibility criteria. Using PSV: for the right carotid, 242 (28.5%) showed a change and 608 (71.5%) showed no change in stenosis

Duplex ultrasound with Doppler velocimetry is widely used to evaluate the presence and severity of internal carotid artery stenosis; however, a variety of velocity criteria are currently being
