Atherosclerosis is a systemic disease that affects
different vascular beds simultaneously. Previously
developed techniques are limited by the small coverage,
low slice resolution, and long scan time in large
coverage atherosclerosis imaging. In this study, we
sought to develop a 3D large coverage Atherosclerotic
Plaque Assessment with Single Scan (APASS) technique
that can be used to image the plaque burden and
compositions simultaneously in one scan in a short time
at different vascular beds. APASS was validated on
healthy volunteers for both carotid artery imaging
(160mm, < 4min) and femoral artery imaging (250 mm,
<8min).
