Clinical Trial: Evaluate the Precision of ABL-101 Perfluorocarbon and Fluorine-19 MRI for the Mapping of Atherosclerotic Plaque Composition and Inflammation in Patients Undergoing Carotid Endarterectomy

U.S., Feb. 28 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06850324) titled 'Evaluate the Precision of ABL-101 Perfluorocarbon and Fluorine-19 MRI for the Mapping of Atherosclerotic Plaque Composition and Inflammation in Patients Undergoing Carotid Endarterectomy' on Feb. 24.

Brief Summary: This study is aimed at patients suffering from carotid atherosclerosis. In the presence of atherosclerosis of the carotid arteries, one of the treatments that can be proposed is carotid endarterectomy, the aim of which is to remove the atherosclerotic plaque that obstructs the carotid artery and therefore increases the risk of developing a stroke. The risk of rupture of these plaques is primarily assessed by anatomical me...
