The intima-media thickness (IMT) of carotid arteries was demonstrated to be a reliable measure for early stages of atherosclerosis. B-mode ultrasound may be used to measure carotid IMT. The measurements of the IMT of the carotid artery (CA) conducted by different investigators can be comparable and enable the implementation of clinical trial successfully while maintaining a high reproducibility value. The objective of the study was to evaluate the reproducibility of the measurements made by the same investigator on two separate occasions (intraobserver variability) and the reproducibility of the off-line measurements between four sonographers in our laboratory (interobserver variability). The IMT of CA in 25 subjects (15 post stroke and 10 healthy persons) was investigated with the use of high-resolution ultrasonography. The CA subdivided into the common, bulbs and internal segments were scanned twice with a 3-week interval. Additionally three other readers with different levels of experience and skills in ultrasonography were asked to perform the same measurements in duplicate with at least a 3-week interval between. A high concurrence for intraobserver variability was detected with a correlation coefficient ranging from 0.92 to 0.95; p < 0.0001, and maximal bias 0.019 mm. Interobserver variability for all four readers also demonstrated a high correlation coefficient ranging from 0.72 to 0.83; p < 0.0001, and the maximal bias of measurements did not exceed 0.08 mm. The analogue measurements performed by the team demonstrate a reliable reproducibility in terms of the results of morphologic measurements. The differences obtained in the study were less than the error of the method (i.e. 0.1 mm) and should not influence clinical decision-making. Additionally, this study demonstrated that interobserver concurrence increases with the increasing experience of the investigators.

When measured by ultrasound, the morphological markers of carotid atherosclerosis such as intima-media thickness (IMT) and cross-sectional plaque area have been associated with the risk of ischaemic stroke. We set out to determine whether the morphological parameters of the carotid arteries made it possible to better differentiate between groups of older atherothrombotic stroke patients and persons without cerebrovascular disease than conventional and novel risk factors of stroke. Of the total number of 623 persons examined, 54 stroke patients (mean age 63.3 years) and 74 controls without cerebrovascular disease (mean age 66.3 years) fulfilled the inclusion criteria for this investigation and were enrolled in the case-control study. After adjustment for age, gender and education level, the strongest associations were found between stroke and carotid IMT [odds ratio (OR) = 10.6; 95% confidence interval (CI): 4.3–26.9] and plaque area (OR = 5.4; 95%CI: 2.3–13.1). Other risk factors showed weaker associations with stroke occurrence. Of the clinical risk factors, a significant association was found between stroke and coronary heart disease (OR = 3.5; 95%CI: 1.2–10.2), hypertension (OR = 3.2; 95%CI: 1.5–7.2) and smoking (OR = 2.7; 95%CI: 1.1– –6.4). From the laboratory-derived risk factors a significant association was found between stroke and triglyceride levels (OR = 4.4; 95%CI: 1.9–10.0), and an inverse correlation was observed between stroke occurrence and HDL-cholesterol level (OR = 0.4; 95%CI: 0.2–0.8). The carotid IMT and plaque area, measured with the use of ultrasonography, showed a better correlation with stroke occurrence than currently recognised clinical and biochemical risk factors. The intima-media thickness and plaque area of the carotid arteries could be useful parameters in the development of strategies to identify patients at high risk of atherothrombotic ischaemic stroke.
