## Abstract ## Purpose: To investigate the short‐term reproducibility of black‐blood dynamic contrast‐enhanced (DCE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in atherosclerotic rabbits to evaluate the potential of this technique to be a reliable readout of plaque progression and/or regression upon therape
## 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 One of the current limitations of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the lack of an objective method to classify plaque components. Here we present a cluster analysis technique that can objectively quantify and classify MR images of atherosclerotic plaques. We obtained three‐dimensiona
