Summary

Atherosclerotic plaque at the carotid artery bifurcation is a major source of stroke. The purpose of this investigation is to determine the ability of the SmartRisk software module to predict stroke or stroke-related events due to carotid plaque within a high-risk population. The SmartRisk software module operates on magnetic resonance images (MRI) of the carotid artery wall.
