title: [Method of diagnostics of pathologic deformity of carotid arteries].
abstract: Pathologic deformity of carotid arteries in 137 patients with transitional ischemic attacks, ischemic stroke and dyscirculatory encephalopathy by means of magnetic-resonance and multislice computer angiography has been studied in. The fractal geometry and in particular, fractal dimensionality (FD) have been used to describe pathologic deformity of carotid arteries. The patients with FD < 0.6 subsequently underwent surgical intervention.
