Blood Vessel Pathology
Blood vessel pathology is the study of changes that occur in the blood vessel walls due to injury or disease. It is important in the diagnosis and management of various cardiovascular diseases, ranging from atherosclerosis to aneurysm and stroke. The most common methods used to evaluate blood vessel pathology include angiography, ultrasound, computed tomography (CT) scanning, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanning, and endovascular imaging. By identifying the underlying cause of the blood vessel pathology, the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases can be improved. Furthermore, early diagnosis of blood vessel pathology can reduce complications, disability, and even death.
