Associations of Carotid Artery Intima-Media Thickness (IMT) With Risk Factors and Prevalent Cardiovascular Disease: Comparison of Mean Common Carotid Artery IMT With Maximum Internal Carotid Artery IMT

OBJECTIVE: The goal of this study was to compare internal carotid artery (ICA) intima-media thickness (IMT) with common carotid artery (CCA) IMT as global markers of cardiovascular disease (CVD). METHODS: Cross-sectional measurements of the mean CCA IMT and maximum ICA IMT were made on ultrasound im...
