Exclusion of echo-lucent plaque using superb micro-vascular imaging: A case report
When a flow void is observed with CDI in CU, and it is difficult to differentiate between an ELP and extremely low-velocity blood flow, the application of SMI can sometimes detect the extremely low-velocity blood flow. This approach may help avoid invasive examinations such as CU with contrast agents or cerebral angiography.
