Noninvasive surrogate markers of atherosclerosis

The American Journal of Cardiology
Steven B FeinsteinFrancesco Pizzuto

Abstract

Noninvasive imaging techniques offer a unique opportunity to study the relation of surrogate markers to the development of atherosclerosis. These noninvasive imaging modalities include: (1) carotid artery, coronary, and aorta imaging; (2) left ventricular echocardiography imaging; (3) electron-beam computed tomography; (4) magnetic resonance imaging; and (5) ankle-brachial index. Because the incidence of coronary artery disease is a function of the development and progression of atherosclerosis, the use of noninvasive surrogate markers of atherosclerosis can aid in the diagnosis of cardiovascular disease through the identification of subclinical disease. Noninvasive imaging techniques provide an approach for identifying high-risk individuals who may benefit from active intervention to prevent clinical disease.

Cardiovascular Diseases: Risk Factors

Cardiovascular disease is a significant health concern. Risk factors include hypertension, obesity, dyslipidemia and smoking. Women who are postmenopausal are at an increased risk of heart disease. Here is the latest research for risk factors of cardiovascular disease.

Cardiovascular Disease Pathophysiology

Cardiovascular disease involves several different processes that contribute to the pathological mechanism, including hyperglycemia, inflammation, atherosclerosis, hypertension and more. Vasculature stability plays a critical role in the development of the disease. Discover the latest research on cardiovascular disease pathophysiology here.

Atherosclerosis Disease Progression

Atherosclerosis is the buildup of plaque on artery walls, causing stenosis which can eventually lead to clinically apparent cardiovascular disease. Find the latest research on atherosclerosis disease progression here.
