## Abstract ## Purpose To determine whether the mean wall thickness (MWT) of the common carotid artery (CCA) measured by MRI is comparable to Bβmode ultrasound (US) measurement of the intimaβmedia thickness (IMT), an established marker of cardiovascular risk. ## Materials and Methods As part of
In the present study, the reliability of an ultrasonic shear rate estimating system, in terms of intrasubject intrasession, intersubject intrasession and intersubject intersession variability coefficients for the assessment of wall shear rate (WSR) in the common carotid artery (CCA) was determined i
