    Abstract

    The aim of the study is to study importance of carotid artery intima-media thickness by Doppler in patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome. Carotid IMT has been a good indicator of the presence and extent of CAD in many observational studies. Result: Both coronary and carotid vascular beds share common risk factors and pathogenesis for atherosclerosis. In the study group, the mean age of presentation was 56.8 years. Higher levels of total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol and lower level of HDL cholesterol were seen in cases. They significantly differed in comparison to controls. The carotid intima-media thickness was found to be higher in patients with acute coronary syndrome, as compared to controls. The difference between cases and controls was statistically significant.
