Abstract
The evaluation of intima-media thickening (IMT) of carotid artery is an important parameter in preclinical diagnosis of atherosclerosis and stroke risk in hypertensive patients. Measurements of carotid wall thickness via Doppler were considered to be valuable in prediction of risk of brain damage and future stroke due to hypertension in diabetic and non-diabetic patients.
