Summary
This study uses a special PET-MR scan to look at plaque buildup in the carotid arteries of people who have narrowing but no symptoms. The goal is to see if the scan can predict who is at higher risk for a stroke or mini-stroke. About 80 adults with at least 60% blockage will be followed for up to 18 months to track their health outcomes.
