Background,Motivation and Objective In current clinical practice,the risk of stroke is based heavily on the degree of arterial lumen narrowing.However,there is a growing body of evidence indicating plaque structure and composition as more direct predictors of future cerebrovascular ischemic events.The purpose of this study is to introduce a method for mapping the internal stiffness of carotid plaques using a previously developed arterial Pulse Wave Imaging(PWI) method.
