The overall echogenicity (GSM) of carotid intima-media complex shows a positive correlation with arterial stiffness in hypertensive patients

BACKGROUND: Arterial stiffness measurement still plays a role in prediction of future cardiovascular events, thus helping for quantification of patients’ cardiovascular (CV) risk level. However, significant measurement difficulties still exist, making its widespread evaluation not routinary. At pres...
