摘要: 心血管疾病是我国居民死亡和疾病负担的首要原因。动脉粥样硬化是多种缺血性或出血性心脑血管疾病的共同病理基础。动脉弹性功能减退、僵硬度增加是早期动脉粥样硬化的主要表现,同时是心血管疾病发病和死亡的独立危险因子。早期发现动脉粥样硬化,尽早干预,有利于延缓或避免心血管事件发生。超声成像技术可以定量评估动脉血管弹性,反映血管功能特征变化,是临床上检测早期动脉粥样硬化的主要方法。本文就不同超声技术评估动脉弹性的研究进展进行综述。

Abstract: Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death and burden of diseases in China. Atherosclerosis is a common pathological basis for a variety of ischemic or hemorrhagic cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The decreased elasticity and increased stiffness of the arteries, the major manifestations of early atherosclerosis, are the independent risk factors for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The early detection of atherosclerosis and early intervention are beneficial to delay or avoid cardiovascular events. Ultrasound imaging can quantitatively evaluate arterial elasticity to reflect changes in vascular function, which is the main method for detecting early atherosclerosis in clinic. This article reviews the research progress of arterial elasticity assessed by different ultrasound techniques.
