## Abstract ## Purpose To investigate the performance of high‐resolution T1‐weighted (T1w) turbo field echo (TFE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the identification of the high‐risk component intraplaque hemorrhage, which is described in the literature as a troublesome component to detect. #
## Abstract Calcified tissue is a common component of atherosclerotic plaques, and occurs most often in mature plaques. The process of calcification is a poorly understood risk factor that may contribute to a plaque's vulnerability to sudden rupture. In this study a solid‐state imaging sequence, te
