In this study, TAWSS was found to be associated
with carotid IPH. In discriminating carotid IPH, the strength of combination
between TAWSS and plaque burden was higher than each measurement alone, which suggests that TAWSS is a potential indicator for carotid vulnerable
plaque features of IPH.

Figure 2. ROC curves of TAWSS combined with max wall thickness (MWT) and normal wall index (NWI) in discriminating IPH.
(The black line represents the ROC curves for predicting IPH with TAWSS. The orange and green lines represent the ROC curves for predicting IPH with TAWSS of combined MWT and of combined NWI.)
