Recomendação para a Quantificação pelo Ultrassom da Doença Aterosclerótica das Artérias Carótidas e Vertebrais: Grupo de Trabalho do Departamento de Imagem Cardiovascular da Sociedade Brasileira de Cardiologia – DIC - SBC

Abstract: IntroduçãoA doença carotídea vem recebendo grande atenção por parte de diversas sociedades internacionais de radiologia, cirurgia vascular e cardiologia em razão do grande interesse no diagnóstico e tratamento da doença aterosclerótica.O sistema carotídeo e vertebral extracraniano é facilmente avaliado pela ultrassonografia vascular tornando-a, assim, em várias instituições, o método de escolha para diagnóstico e decisão terapêutica. No Brasil, os médicos que realizam esse exame vêm utilizando esses consensos … Show more

“…The mean value and the maximum value are commonly used as references for IMT measured in the common and internal carotid, respectively. 15 Carotid atherosclerotic plaque was defined as a focal structure that extends at least 0.5 mm into the arterial lumen and/or measures 50% or more of the adjacent IMT value and/or has an IMT value greater than 1.5 mm. 15 The automated measurement of IMT was determined, using a software, in the right and left common carotid arteries in mean, medium and minimum value.…”

When atheromatous plaques were identified, IMT was determined both automatically and manually.…”

“…33 The current Brazilian recommendations for ultrasound evaluation on carotid atherosclerotic disease use the ELSA-Brasil CIMT values as the standard for the Brazilian adult population. 34 These standards are important, because a CIMT value ≥ the 75 th percentile for an individual's age, sex and race/ethnicity, and which has been determined from the distribution in his/her reference population, is usually considered indicative of higher subclinical atherosclerosis burden. 35 Comparing IMT values across cohorts is difficult.…”
