It has been known that carotid stiffness is a predilection for stroke. Strain elastography (SE) ultrasound (US) is one of the new modalities which can evaluate carotid artery stiffness by obtaining its tunica intima media strain value. There were no studies that show the carotid artery SE US value i...
