Article Synopsis
- The study aims to evaluate the variability in measurements of atherosclerotic plaque (ASP) area and height in carotid arteries, proposing these as potential indicators for assessing the effectiveness of secondary prevention after acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
- Analysis was conducted on patients with confirmed ACS and recorded ASP, revealing that variability in measurements between different studies was notably higher than that within the same study, indicating inconsistencies in data collection or methodology.
- Although some changes in ASP parameters were observed over a six-month follow-up, the differences were not statistically significant, highlighting the need for improved protocols and training for the specialists involved in these evaluations.
