U.S., Oct. 14 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07870512) titled 'Carotid Plaque RADS vs CPVH: Diagnostic Accuracy Comparison' on Oct. 06.
Brief Summary: This study compares two methods for assessing carotid artery plaques - deposits of cholesterol and other substances that can build up in the neck arteries and potentially lead to stroke. The first method, Carotid Plaque RADS, is a standardized ultrasound-based scoring system where expert physicians visually classify plaques into categories reflecting their stability.
