Research Abstract |
Non-gated MR plaque imaging with axial T1WI with a TR of 500 ms and PDWI and T2WI with a TR of 3000 ms with a self-navigated rotating-blade scan instead of cardiac gating particularly T1WI, can readily predict the intraplaque main components of the carotid artery with high sensitivity and specificity. Also, this method, combined with 3D-US, can quantitatively detect changes in the size and composition of carotid plaques during cilostazol therapy.
