From: Sequentially based analysis versus image based analysis of Intima Media Thickness in common carotid arteries studies - Do major IMT studies underestimate the true relations for cardio- and cerebrovascular risk?

Figure 1

Ultrasound sequence in 3D model. The dotted arrow (z-axis) shows the B-mode image of ultrasound. The black arrow (x-axis) represents the time interval. The black dotted line represents the R-wave in the ECG. The marked star is positioned in the lumen of the artery. The wave motion movement of the artery can be seen clearly on the x-axis. The white arrows point to the contours of the intima media. A1 points to the near Media/Adventitia layer. B1 points to the near Intima/Media layer. A2 points to the near Media/Adventitia layer. B2 points to the near Intima/Media layer.
