Limitations of arterial wall motion tracking across the vessel lumen. This shows an interesting example of an ulcerated plaque and highlights the uncertainty over the wall tracking across the lumen in these tuning folk bifurcations. At the bifurcation, the wall tracking of the ICA has a discontinuity across the lumen of the ECA. The example highlights the requirement for careful interpretation of the AWM data.
