Ai TooLs to chAracterize and identify uNstable aTherosclerotIc plaqueS (ATLANTIS)

Strokes and myocardial infarctions, caused by the rupture of unstable atherosclerotic plaques in the carotid and coronary arteries, are the leading causes of death world-wide. Current clinical guidelines recommend surgical removal of plaques based solely on the degree of artery stenosis. However, stenosis alone is an incomplete determinant of stroke/heart attack risk, leading to suboptimal […]
