Figure 2

Multiplanar images (a coronal, b axial, c sagittal) of carotid intraplaque hemorrhage (arrowheads) within the wall of the left carotid artery. Intraplaque hemorrhage is detected using a 3D-T1-weighted fat-suppressed fast field echo sequence by exploiting the T1 shortening effects of methemoglobin and the technique has been histologically validated
