Cardiovascular risk models📈 do not assess presence of atherosclerosis🫀🧠 👉Carotid ultrasound is safe & inexpensive and offers a window to atherosclerosis pathology. A carotid plaque score can restratify low–intermed. risk patients to higher risk❗️ 🔗academic.oup.com/ehjcimaging/ad…

Deberíamos los cardiólogos rutinariamente valorar el score de placa en carótida para estratificar riesgo cardiovascular .. Muy muy muy fácil de hacer 1.Placa carotídea 0-1: casi 0 riesgo cardiovascular a 10 años 2.Placa ≥2: índice de mayor riesgo, guía tratamiento 3.Ecografía carotídea: screening rápido y clave
