颈动脉粥样硬化(CA S)与冠状动脉粥样硬化(CAA S)同为动脉粥样硬化(A S)的最常见表现形式,二者具有相同的致病因素和病理机制。由于颈动脉位置表浅,超声显像的颈动脉血管结构清晰,可以辨别出有无内中膜增厚及斑块数量、性质等。因此,颈动脉超声检测可作为了解冠状动脉病变的一 Carotid atherosclerosis (CA S) and coronary atherosclerosis (CAA S) are the most common manifestations of atherosclerosis (A S), both of which have the same pathogenic factors and pathological mechanisms. Due to the superficial location of the carotid artery, ultrasound imaging of the structure of the carotid artery clear, you can identify with or without intimal thickening and plaque number, nature. Therefore, carotid ultrasound examination can be used as a understanding of coronary artery disease
