The ultrasonic image can offer unique information on the composition of atherosclerotic plaque, ie, the relative content of lipids, fibrous tissue, and calcific deposits. To date, however, the echographic assessment of plaque structure is based on a subjective, qualitative evaluation of the bidimensional images. We evaluated the feasibility and accuracy of assessing, in vivo, the acoustic properties of arterial carotid plaques by means of a suitably modified echographic apparatus allowing direct access to the radiofrequency signal.
