Nature of atherosclerosis from plaque initiation to thrombosis
For the first time, researchers can provide early detection of plaques that have a high likelihood of clotting and/or rupture. Boston University School of Medicine (BUSM) scientists have observed the development and evolution of atherosclerotic plaques at the highest risk for thrombosis (clotting) by using non-invasive Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Atherosclerosis is an important contributor […]
