Genetic and Etiological Insights from Automated Lumen Diameter Measurements in Carotid Ultrasounds of the UK Biobank

2025-01-07

Abstract excerpt

Carotid ultrasound is routinely used in clinical practice for non-invasive vascular anatomical and functional assessment. In particular, the carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT) is an important marker for quantifying atherosclerotic burden in the common carotid arteries (CCAs). Recent research suggests that several risk factors associated with higher cIMT, such as high blood pressure, can induce a compensatory in...
