Active Control
Group I: Carotid Plaques with 50-69% StenosisActive Control3 Interventions
Cardiovascular high-risk patients with moderate (50-69% diameter) stenosis carotid plaques from the Mayo Clinic Gonda Vascular Center will be approached for recruitment to receive an ultrasound examination including duplex imaging, shear wave elastography and contrast-enhanced ultrasound.
Group II: Carotid Plaques with >70% StenosisActive Control3 Interventions
Subjects being seen in the Mayo Clinic Gonda Vascular Center who have a plaque causing a > 70% stenosis will be approached for recruitment to receive an ultrasound examination including duplex imaging, shear wave elastography and contrast-enhanced ultrasound.
