Summary

This study tested a new imaging method to detect inflammation in fatty plaques that cause strokes. It involved 3 men who had a recent stroke and were scheduled for surgery to remove a plaque in their neck artery. The goal was to see if a special PET scan tracer could highlight inflamed plaques, which might help doctors better identify dangerous blockages in the future.
