A comparison of intima media thickness in the common carotid artery, the bulb and plaque area as predictions of incident atherosclerotic events
Table 4
Integrated discrimination improvement (IRI) and net reclassification improvement (NRI) of carotid artery ultrasound measurements when added to traditional risk factors compared to the risk factors alone regarding incident atherosclerotic disease (myocardial infarction or ischemic stroke) over 15 years.
IMT, intima-media thickness; CCA, common carotid artery.
