Conditions
Eligibility Criteria
The current study collects new and novel risk factors and performs carotid magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations on a stratified random sample of 1,200 ARIC participants with high (\>85th percentile) carotid intimal-medial thickness \[IMT\] by ultrasound and 800 participants with \<85th percentile IMT.
