Carotid Artery Wall Echogenicity Measured by Gray Scale Median of the Intima‐Media Complex From Childhood to Young Adulthood

Carotid Artery Wall Echogenicity Measured by Gray Scale Median of the Intima‐Media Complex From Childhood to Young Adulthood

Background Echogenicity of the carotid arterial wall, measured by gray scale median of the intima‐media complex (IM‐GSM), is a novel subclinical atherosclerosis marker with lower values indicating greater lipid deposition. Our longitudinal study investigated IM‐GSM from childhood to adulthood and it...
