TV: total volume; CV: central volume; CHT: central thickness; 0: baseline; 2: 2nd day after CEA; 3: 3rd day after CEA; 0/2: differences in measurements taken on the 2nd day after CEA and at baseline; 2/3: differences in measurements taken on the 2nd day and in the 3rd month after CEA; ICAS degree: degree of internal carotid artery stenosis on operated side; Rs: Spearman rank; p: p value. Statistically significant results are indicated in bold (p ≤ 0.05).
