2 Fig. 1 Hypoechoic plaque (outlined ) with the near and far wall common carotid artery adventitia of similar brightness and the time-gain compensation curve gently sloping but vertical through the vessel lumen (arrowheads ).

3 Fig. 2 Hypoechoic plaque (gray scale median = 0) with the histogram of the gray tone frequency distribution of the pixels in the selected area (plaque) of the image. The colored image is used as a guide to outline the area of interest.
