Evolution of Subclinical Carotid Atherosclerotic Plaque Composition Using Serial MRI in the Rotterdam Study

< .001). Conclusion Subclinical carotid plaques with pre-existing calcification are more likely to evolve into IPH than calcification-free plaques. Most subclinical carotid plaques progressed to multicomponent plaques in the simulated 30-year continuous plaque evolution, and men are more likely to develop multicomponent plaques with IPH. © RSNA, 2025
