Objectives This study sought to clarify the incidence and prognosis of PP in carotid artery
stenting (CAS). Background Projections thought to be plaque may be observed inside the …

Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the feasibility and usefulness of contrast-
enhanced magnetic resonance angiography (CE-MRA) and 3-dimensional (3D) time-of …

Purpose Periprocedural ischemic stroke is one problem associated with carotid artery
stenting (CAS). This study was designed to assess whether preoperative statin therapy …

Introduction The purpose is to investigate the feasibility of magnetic resonance (MR) plaque
imaging in predicting the arterial flow impairment (slow-flow phenomenon) during carotid …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Restenosis after CAS is a postoperative problem, with a
reported frequency of approximately 2%–8%. However differences in stent design …

Purpose: To examine whether carotid artery stenting (CAS) of stenoses with unstable plaque
using a closed-cell stent-in-stent technique prevents plaque protrusion. Materials and …

Introduction: Vulnerable plaques are a strong predictor of cerebrovascular ischemic events,
and high lipid core plaques (LCPs) are associated with an increased risk of embolic infarcts …

The objective of this study was to determine long-term outcomes after stent placement for
subclavian artery (SA) obstructive lesions assisted by intraoperative intravascular ultrasound …

Background It is vital to identify a surrogate last-known-well time to perform proper
endovascular thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke; however, no established imaging …

Objective Carotid near occlusions show a lower risk of stroke than other types of severe
stenosis. However, emerging evidence suggests that near occlusion with full collapse differs …
