Translational Molecular Imaging Tool of Vulnerable Carotid Plaque: Evaluate Effects of Statin Therapy on Plaque Inflammation and American Heart Association –Defined Risk Levels in Cuff-Implanted Apolipoprotein E–Deficient Mice
AbstractIdentification of high-risk carotid plaques in asymptomatic patients remains a challenging but crucial step in stroke prevention. The challenge is to accurately monitor the development of high-risk carotid plaques and promptly identify patients, who are unresponsive to best medical therapy, and hence targeted for carotid surgical interventions to prevent stroke. Inflammation is a key operator in destabilisation of plaques prior to clinical sequelae. Currently, there is a lack of imaging tool in routine clinical practice, which allows assessment of inflammatory activity within the atherosclerotic plaque. Herein, we ...
