Abstract-Vorschau
Carotid Intima Media Thickness (IMT) as well as IMT progression are well established parameters for clinical risk assessment of cardiovascular events. Increased IMT as identified by B-mode ultrasound of the extracranial carotid arteries is a predictor of incident coronary events 1, 2 and all-cause mortality3. The addition of IMT in combination with markers of peripheral vascular diseases to a basic model of traditio…
