摘要

Structure and content of atherosclerotic plaque varies between patients and may be indicative of their risk for embolisation. This study aimed to construct parametric images of B-scan texture and assess their potential for predicting plaque morphology. Sequential transverse in vitro scans of 10 carotid plaques, excised during endarterectomy, were compared with macrohistology maps of plaque content. Multidiscriminant analysis combined the output of 157 statistical and textural algorithms into five separate texture classes, displayed as ultrasound (US) texture classification images (UTCI). Visual comparison between corresponding UTCI and histology maps found the five texture classes matched with the location of fibrin, elastin, calcium, haemorrhage or lipid. However, histology preparation removes calcium and lipid and, so, can affect the structural integrity of atherosclerotic plaques. Soft tissue regions smaller than the UTCI kernel, (0.87 mm x 0.85 mm x 3.9 mm), such as blood clots, are also difficult to detect by UTCI. These factors demonstrate limitations in the use of histology as a "gold standard" for US tissue characterisation.
