Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of global mortality, so their prevention is one of the main challenges of today’s medicine. Among the imaging techniques developed so far for diagnosis, ultrasound is the least invasive of all of them, in addition to having an acceptable precision in detecting atheroma plaques in medium caliber arteries. Recently, a new 3D ultrasound diagnostic method has been developed that will allow more extensive evaluation of the entire section of the arterial wall. This technique, although promising, still needs to be validated, as well as establishing the prevalence values of atherosclerosis detected by it in a population with low cardiovascular risk. The objective of our study consists first of all in the validation of 3D ultrasound, comparing the findings with those obtained through this examination and computed tomography angiography (angioTC) of the same femoral artery segment in subjects studied for peripheral arterial disease and to establish the sensitivity and specificity of this technique in the detection of atherosclerosis and the degree of stenosis. A single cross-sectional study of 100 subjects evaluated by angioTC and 3D ultrasound in the same territory is planned. The second consists of determining the atherosclerosis values detected by 3D ultrasound in carotid and femoral artery in 70 middle-aged subjects with low cardiovascular risk belonging to the general population (English) | |||||||||||||||

Las enfermedades cardiovasculares son la principal causa de mortalidad mundial por lo que su prevención supone uno de los principales retos de la medicina actual. De entre las técnicas de imagen desarrolladas hasta el momento para su diagnóstico, la ecografía es la menos invasiva de todas ellas, además de contar con una aceptable precisión en la detección de placas de ateroma en arterias de mediano calibre. Recientemente se ha desarrollado un nuevo método de diagnóstico ecográfico en 3 dimensiones (3D) que permitirá evaluar más ampliamente toda la sección de la pared arterial. Esta técnica, aunque prometedora, todavía necesita ser validada, así como establecer los valores de prevalencia de aterosclerosis detectados por la misma en una población con bajo riesgo cardiovascular. El objetivo de nuestro estudio consiste en primer lugar en la validación de la ecografía 3D, comparando los hallazgos con los obtenidos mediante esta exploración y la angiografía mediante tomografía computarizada (angioTC) de un mismo segmento de arteria femoral en sujetos estudiados por enfermedad arterial periférica y establecer la sensibilidad y especificidad de esta técnica en la detección de aterosclerosis y en el grado de estenosis. Para ello se prevé realizar un estudio trasversal único de 100 sujetos evaluados mediante angioTC y ecografía 3D en el mismo territorio. En segundo consiste en determinar los valores de aterosclerosis detectados mediante ecografía 3D en arteria carótida y femoral en 70 sujetos de edad media con bajo riesgo cardiovascular perteneciente a población general (Spanish)

Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of global mortality, so their prevention is one of the main challenges of today’s medicine. Among the imaging techniques developed so far for diagnosis, ultrasound is the least invasive of all of them, in addition to having an acceptable precision in detecting atheroma plaques in medium caliber arteries. Recently, a new 3D ultrasound diagnostic method has been developed that will allow more extensive evaluation of the entire section of the arterial wall. This technique, although promising, still needs to be validated, as well as establishing the prevalence values of atherosclerosis detected by it in a population with low cardiovascular risk. The objective of our study consists first of all in the validation of 3D ultrasound, comparing the findings with those obtained through this examination and computed tomography angiography (angioTC) of the same femoral artery segment in subjects studied for peripheral arterial disease and to establish the sensitivity and specificity of this technique in the detection of atherosclerosis and the degree of stenosis.
