Opis

The use of carotid imtima-media thickness in evaluating cardiovascular risk is gaining popularity even in developing countries where health care facilities are not readily available. Cardiovascular risk evaluation in diabetes mellitus can be modified by assessment of carotid intima-media thickness. However, in early stage of the disease this may not be markedly, so there could be other complications.
