OBJECTIVE: While @entity2998 ( @entity2998 ) has been gaining popularity as an alternative to @entity3538 ( @entity3538 ), the perioperative @entity64 rate following contemporary @entity2998 remains significantly higher than that in @entity3538 . The purpose of this study was to assess perioperative (within 30-day) therapeutic results in @entity1 with @entity543 ( @entity543 ) after the introduction of preoperative carotid magnetic resonance plaque evaluation in a single center offering both @entity3538 and @entity2998 . METHODS: Based on prospectively collected data for @entity1 with @entity543 who were scheduled for carotid revascularization, retrospective analysis was conducted of 295 consecutive @entity543 @entity1 . Selection of an intervention was made after consideration on periprocedural risks for both @entity3538 and @entity2998 . Concerning risk factors for @entity2998 , magnetic resonance plaque imaging results were emphasized with a view toward reducing @entity887 . RESULTS: @entity2998 was performed for 114 @entity1 and @entity3538 for 181 @entity1 . Comparing baseline characteristics of the 295 @entity1 , age, T1 signal intensity of plaque, symptomatic @entity543 , urgent intervention, and @entity6 differed significantly between @entity2998 and @entity3538 @entity1 . In @entity1 who received @entity2998 , new hyperintense lesions on diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) were confirmed in 47 @entity1 . New hyperintense lesions on DWI were recognized in 21.4% of the @entity1 who received @entity3538 (n=39), significantly less frequent than in @entity2998 @entity1 . CONCLUSIONS: The overall short-term outcome of @entity3538 and @entity2998 is entirely acceptable. Preoperative carotid magnetic resonance evaluation of plaque might contribute to low rates of @entity63 complications in @entity2998 .
