New scan aims to spot stroke risk before it strikes
NCT ID NCT07178015
Summary
This study is testing a new ultrasound-based scoring system to better predict which people with plaque buildup in their neck arteries are most likely to have a stroke or heart attack. Researchers will look back at past patient data and also follow new patients to see if this method is more accurate than current measurements. The goal is to help doctors identify high-risk individuals earlier so they can receive preventive treatment.
