Distribution of carotid and aortic plaque. Distribution of carotid and aortic plaque. Atheroma burden (expressed as wall and plaque index) was higher in the carotid bulb (CB) compared to the distal (DCC) and proximal segments of common carotid (PCC) artery (A and B). Atheroma burden (expressed as wall area and plaque index) was higher in the distal (DDA) and middle descending (MDA) aorta in comparison to the proximal descending aorta (PDA) (C and D).
