Background Stenosis has historically been the major factor used to determine carotid stroke sources. Recent evidence suggests that specific plaque features detected on imaging may be more highly associated with ischemic stroke than stenosis. We sought to determine computed tomography angiography (CTA) imaging features of carotid plaque that optimally discriminate ipsilateral stroke sources. Methods and Results In this institutional review board–approved retrospective cross‐sectional study, 494 ipsilateral carotid CTA‐brain magnetic resonance imaging pairs were available for analysis after excluding patients with alternative stroke sources. Carotid CTA and clinical markers were recorded, a multivariable Poisson regression model was fitted, and backward elimination was performed with a 2‐sided threshold of P |
