From: Reproducibility of 3-dimensional ultrasound readings of volume of carotid atherosclerotic plaque
Carotid plaque images obtained with 3D US showing an example of plaque regression under therapy with a daily dose of 40 mg olmesartan: a) A fibrous non-calcified plaque of the carotid artery (bulb) presented in longitudinal and cross sectional views at the start of therapy (Mean volume: 384 μL). b) The same plaque during therapy six months later (Mean volume: 250 μL). c) The same plaque (no longer visible) 16 months later.
