Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Book Chapter Description
We present a brief overview of carotid atherosclerosis, including a historical perspective, epidemiology, clinical presentation, and imaging modalities. The first known description of the carotid artery dates back to Hippocrates (400-200 BC), but this knowledge has grown extensively. Large artery atherosclerosis accounts for about 20% of ischemic stroke. Carotid disease causes ischemia from both hypoperfusion and atheroemobolic events and presents with varying symptoms. Most commonly seen with ipsilateral monocular vision loss (amaurosis fugax), contralateral hemisensory loss or contralateral hemiparesis. There are multiple imaging modalities available to evaluate the stability and hemodynamic characteristics of carotid atherosclerotic plaque.
