Spontaneous Echo Contrast Observed on Carotid Duplex Ultrasonography
Spontaneous echo contrast is a swirling, smoke-like echographic pattern observed in B-mode ultrasound imaging, typically arising in areas of blood stasis or low-flow states. This hemodynamic disturbance generates low shear stress due to sluggish flow, leading to endothelial dysfunction and facilitat...
