1 The role of advanced diagnostic technology in the selection of a patient with symptomatic but hemodynamically insignificant disease for carotid endarterectomy  Kristine Clodfelter Orion, MD, Jenna Ruppert, RDMS, RVT, Diana Call, RVT, Mahmoud Malas, MD, Kristen Piazza, PA-C, Bruce A. Perler, MD, MBA  Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases  Volume 1, Issue 2, Pages (June 2015) DOI: /j.jvsc Copyright © 2015 The Authors Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)/magnetic resonance angiography (MRA). a, Common, internal, and external carotid arteries. b, Axial reconstructions of three-dimensional high-resolution blood and calcium gradient-echo sequence. The dark yellow arrow indicates calcification, and the light yellow arrow indicates hemorrhagic plaque. c, Two-dimensional high-resolution cardiac-gated T1-weighted black blood MRI postcontrast. Green indicates fibrous cap, light yellow indicates the central lipid core, and turquoise indicates adventitial enhancement, a marker of neovascularization.

3 Fig 2 Left, Preoperative contrast-enhanced duplex scan of the internal carotid artery (ICA). The yellow arrow indicates echogenic plaque and lipid core, and the red arrow indicates the vasa vasorum and contrast-enhanced hemorrhage within the plaque. Right, Preoperative duplex scan without contrast enhancement. Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases 2015 1, 90-93DOI: ( /j.jvsc ) Copyright © 2015 The Authors Terms and Conditions
