Multimodal Imaging Assessment of the Inflammatory Atheromatous Plaque
Conditions: Inflammation, Atheromatous Plaques, Carotid Artery Diseases
Sex: All
Ages: 18 Years – 85 Years
Healthy volunteers: No
Phase: PHASE1, PHASE2
Enrollment: 20
Sponsor: University of Lausanne Hospitals
Location: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois Lausanne Canton of Vaud
Summary
The present study aims at assessing the ability of 68Ga-NODAGA-RGD PET/CT for the detection of inflammatory atheromatous plaques in the carotid arteries, compared to 18F-FDG PET/CT, MRI and US and to determine the contribution of each imaging technique. Current gold standard for inflammation is histopathology.
Hypothesis : 68Ga-NODAGA-RGD might give a better initial evaluation of patients with atheromatous plaques in the carotid artery eligible for endarterectomy.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
* age \= 80%
* patient with indication ofr carotid endarterectomy
* signed consent form
Exclusion Criteria:
* indication for surgery other than endarterectomy \
