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.
