Abstract:Carotid plaque is a biomarker of generalized atherosclerosis, and may predict ischemic stroke. Carotid intima-media thickness (C-IMT) measurement with ultrasonography imaging could capture the condition of carotid plaque. However, manual measurement of C-IMT is observer- dependent, resulting in observer bias and low reproducibility. In this study, we develop artificial intelligence (AI) framework that could automatically measure the C-IMT, and compared it with C-IMT measured by board of expert. This is a retro… Show more
