Abstract
The true prognostic implication of carotid intima–media thickness (CIMT) remains a major question for clinicians and the preventive cardiology community. The merits of using CIMT for assessing asymptomatic individuals at risk for developing cardiovascular disease are discussed, together with the potential issues arising from an analysis of CIMT measurement in the Framingham Offspring Study cohort.
