Abstract
We present a unique algorithm to perform semiautomatic quantification of carotid plaque volume using 3DUS imaging. It is quick (mean time, 14Â minutes), accurate, repeatable, and implementable in a clinical environment and in longitudinal studies tracking plaque progression. It reliably detects plaque volume changes as low as 4% to 6% with 95% confidence.
