Figure 6-4 Carotid stent with B-mode and color imaging illustrating minimal evidence of disease. A: Transverse view of stent. B: Longitudinal view of stent slightly offset to demonstrate stent walls. C: Longitudinal view of stent at proximal attachment site. D: Longitudinal view of stent with color flow imaging. Color does not completely fill the lumen along the superficial wall of the stent. This image serves as evidence of a mild Type III lesion.
