The complementary roles of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI and [supersript 18]F-fluorodeoxyglucose PET/CT for imaging of carotid atherosclerosis

The complementary roles of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI and [supersript 18]F-fluorodeoxyglucose PET/CT for imaging of carotid atherosclerosis

Inflammation and neovascularization in vulnerable atherosclerotic plaques are key features for severe clinical events. Dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI and FDG PET are two noninvasive imaging techniques capable of quantifying plaque neovascularization and inflammatory infiltrate, respectively. Ho...
