Multi-Modality Atherosclerosis Imaging and Diagnosis

Multi-Modality Atherosclerosis Imaging and Diagnosis edited by Luca Saba, João Miguel Sanches, Luís Mendes Pedro, Jasjit S. Suri.

Stroke is one of the leading causes of death in the world, resulting mostly from the sudden ruptures of atherosclerosis carotid plaques. Understanding why and how plaque develops and ruptures requires a multi-disciplinary approach such as radiology, biomedical engineering, medical physics, software...
