Signal features of the atherosclerotic plaque at 3.0 Tesla versus 1.5 Tesla: impact on automatic classification.

Purpose: To investigate the impact of different field strengths on determining plaque composition with an automatic classifier.Materials and Methods: We applied a previously developed automatic classifier-the morphology enhanced probabilistic plaque segmentation (MEPPS) algorithm-to images from 20 s...
