Oxidative stress and inflammatory markers are determinants of carotid artery disease quantified by magnetic resonance imaging
Year: 2009
Type: article
Abstract: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) can be used to measure common carotid artery maximum wall thickness (CCA-CWT) that incorporates the adventitia to intima-media thickness (IMT). Whether serologic markers of oxidative stress or inflammation are better predictors of wall thickness than conventional risk factors is unknown.
