摘要
颈动脉超声检查是一项安全、实用并且无创的诊断方法,能够准确地提供颈动脉的相关情况,可以为冠心病等心血管疾病提供前期预警。现总结近期文献的观点,认为在提供早期预警方面,颈内动脉内-中膜厚度比颈总动脉内-中膜厚度更有价值。而且颈动脉内-中膜厚度和弗雷明汉评分联用可以为冠心病等心血管疾病提供更加可靠和准确的前期预警。
Carotid ultrasonography is a safe and available noninvasive diagnostic tool that provides information about the carotid arteries＇ characteristics and may be used for early detection of coronary artery disease as well as cardiovascular event risk stratifications. We reviewed recent papers discussing carotid ultrasonography. Generally,the studies showed that internal carotid artery intima-media thickness is a more powerful variable than common carotid artery intima-media thickness. Moreover,the association of Framingham Risk Score（ FRS）and intima-media thickness are more reliable and accurate estimators of coronary artery disease and risk of a cardiovascular event than FRS.
