Carotid Artery Echolucency, Texture Features, and Incident Cardiovascular Disease Events: The MESA Study

Carotid Artery Echolucency, Texture Features, and Incident Cardiovascular Disease Events: The MESA Study

Background We hypothesized that measures of common carotid artery echolucency and grayscale texture features were associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors and could predict CVD events. Methods and Results Using a case‐cohort design, we measured common carotid artery ultrasound image...
