Interactive mini-course. Mastering the application of Plaque-RADS in the diagnosis of carotid artery atherosclerotic plaques

Plaque-RADS in practice: an interactive mini-course on standardized assessment of carotid plaques.

Advancedlevel

Onlinemode of study

Describing a plaque «by eye» produces inconsistency and loses clinically important details. The interactive mini-course teaches the Plaque-RADS system for the standardized assessment of carotid atherosclerotic plaques.

You will describe plaques uniformly and informatively, helping the clinician assess the risk.
