Atherosclerosis represents the leading cause of mortality and
morbidity in the world. Two of the most common, severe, diseases
that may occur, acute myocardial infarction and stroke, have their
pathogenesis in the atherosclerosis that may affect the coronary
arteries as well as the carotid/intra-cranial vessels. Therefore,
in the past there was an extensive research in identifying
pre-clinical atherosclerotic diseases in order to plan the correct
therapeutical approach before the pathological events occur. In the
last 20 years imaging techniques and in particular Computed
Tomography and Magnetic Resonance had a tremendous improvement in
their potential. In the field of the Computed Tomography the
introduction of the multi-detector-row technology and more recently
the use of dual energy and multi-spectral imaging provides an
exquisite level of anatomic detail. The MR thanks to the use of
strength magnetic field and extremely advanced sequences can image
human vessels very quickly while offering an outstanding contrast
resolution.
