<p>Three-dimensional ultrasound analysis is a spectacular method for examining carotid plaques, as it can assist in a more detailed evaluation of the plaque morphology and composition, thereby identifying plaques with a particularly high risk of stroke. Micro-CT is an excellent tool for the exact determination of calcified plaque areas, but ultrasound images are not suitable yet for such a precise examination due to acoustic shadowing and artifacts.</p>.
