3D Contrast Enhanced Microvascular Ultrasound of Carotid Atherosclerosis for the Detection of Carotid Plaque Neo-Revascularisation.
This study uses a special 3D ultrasound to look closely at fatty plaques in neck arteries. We want to find tiny new blood vessels within these plaques. This could help us spot plaques that are more likely to cause serious problems like a stroke, so we can treat them sooner.

The Effect of Low-dose Interleukin-2 on the Immune Landscape of Human Atherosclerotic Plaques at Single Cell Resolution.
This study investigates how a low dose of a medication called Interleukin-2 (IL-2) affects immune cells in fatty plaques in the neck arteries of people undergoing surgery for these plaques. Researchers want to see if IL-2 can make these cells less inflammatory and improve health.
