B型超声越来越多地用于临床研究，以研究颈动脉中的动脉粥样硬化过程。本研究评价了测量股总动脉内膜中层厚度的可行性，并评估了这种测量是否可能提供家族性高胆固醇血症患者动脉粥样硬化程度的进一步信息。进一步的目的是研究颈总动脉内膜中层厚度与颈动脉和股动脉斑块发生之间的关系。结果显示，家族性高胆固醇血症患者股总动脉远壁内膜中层厚度较对照组明显增加（P
B-mode ultrasound is increasingly used in clinical research to study the atherosclerotic process in the carotid arteries. The present investigation evaluated the feasibility of measuring intima-media thickness in the common femoral artery and assessed whether such measurement might provide further information on the extent of the atherosclerotic process in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia. A further aim was to study the relationship between the intima-media thickness of the common carotid artery and the occurrence of plaque in the carotid and femoral arteries. The results showed an increased intima-media thickness in the far wall of the common femoral artery in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia compared with the control subjects (P
