Abstract

Objective To explore the relativity between cerebral infarction and carotid atherosclerosis and application value of carotid ultrasonography in predicting cerebral infarction.Methods To detect and compare atherosclerosis degree and plaque property of two 78-patient groups separately with cerebral infarction (the cerebral infarction group) and with healthy condition (the control group).Results The IMT and incidence rate of plaque of patients with cerebral infarction,which is 139 plaques and 79.49% incidences,was significantly higher than that of control group,which is 46.15% incidences(P0.05).The ratio of hypoechoic and heterogeneous plaques in patients with cerebral infarction was higher than that of control group(P0.05).Conclusion The carotid atherosclerosis degree and plaque property have close relationship with cerebral infarction and ultrasonography can be applied into early detection on carotid atherosclerosis which is important to avoid cerebral infarction effectively.
