Echogenicity of carotid plaque well reflects the risk of ischemic stroke and may be predictive of the histologic content of the plaque. However, objective evaluation of plaque echogenicity has been hampered by a lack of established quantitative measures. This study examined the relation between echogenicity assessed by integrated backscatter (IBS) analysis and (1) symptomatic history and (2) histologic features of carotid plaques.
