Abstract
Content

An apparatus has been devised to enable accurate, reproducible angular positioning of an ultrasonic probe used to diagnose the carotid artery. More specifically, the apparatus is intended for use in a clinical setting in which the intima-media thickness (IMT) of the carotid artery is measured by use of information in ultrasound images. The IMT is useful as an indication of the health status of the carotid artery.
