Abstract

Objectives: The aim of this paper is to evaluate the differentiation of the carotid change between the essential hypertension (HT) and coronary artery disease (CAD) with ultrasonography.Methods: Forty-three cases with HT but without CAD and diabetes mellitus (DM) and 41 cases with CAD but without HT and DM, the carotid were examined display the structures of common carotid artery (CCA), measure vascular internal diameter (D), carotid intima-media thickness (IMT), atherosclerotic plague and blood stream parameters.Results: The results showed that carotid diameter, IMT and plague in HT group were significant more than the CAD group. We believe that carotid changes between the HT and CAD is differential at the initial stage of a disease. Carotid IMT, lipoidosis in the vascular internal membrane and plague were shown in HT than CAD earlier, the soft lipid plagues more shown in HT.Conclusions: Using ultrasonography study carotid to understanding HT and CAD was valuable.
