Article Synopsis
- Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is a serious brain condition that can cause complications like delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI), affecting patient recovery.
- Researchers looked at many studies to find out what factors increase the risk of DCI in patients with aSAH.
- They found that factors like being female, having high scores on certain medical scales, and having other health problems make it more likely for patients to develop DCI, so these patients need close monitoring in the hospital.
Objective: To investigate the detection and characterization of micro-vessels within the carotid atherosclerotic plaque using B-flow imaging (BFI) ultrasound with contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEU) as the reference standard.
Methods: Between August 2008 and July 2011, 78 patients with carotid atherosclerosis that were admitted at the Department of Ultrasonography in ZhongNan Hospital of Wuhan University, Wuhan, China underwent standard and BFI examination. Fifty-one patients received both BFI and CEU.
