Abstract
A study was conducted to determine whether ultrasonic tissue characterization could detect carotid plaque thrombus in vivo. Patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy were examined preoperatively and the ultrasonic tissue characterization findings were compared to those of optical microscopy of the removed plaque specimens. The results lead to the conclusion that analysis utilizing a combination of multiple spectral parameters can detect carotid plaque thrombus in vivo.
