Can shape analysis differentiate free-floating internal carotid artery thrombus from atherosclerotic plaque in patients evaluated with CTA for stroke or transient ischemic attack?
We identified five quantitative shape descriptors of carotid FFT. This shape "signature" shows potential for supplementing conventional lesion characterization in cases of suspected FFT.
Our results support necessity of performing AVS in all patients with primary aldosteronism in whom surgical treatment is considered, CT confirmation ofan adenoma is insufficient in this indication.
