Background& Methods: The aim of the study is to study sonographic intima- media
thickness, pulsatility index index (pi), resistivity index (ri) and peak sytolic velocity (psv)
evaluation of common carotid and internal carotid arteries in type-2 diabetes mellitus and
correlation with physical and biochemical parameters.
Result: This study measured four hemodynamic parameters (IMT, PI, RI, PSV) in the
internal carotid arteries of diabetic patients, finding mean values of 0.88±0.12, 1.92±0.16,
1.08±0.16, and 129.68±38.87 respectively. BMI positively correlates with intima-media
thickness (IMT), pulsatility index (PI), resistance index (RI), and peak systolic velocity
(PSV) in both common and internal carotid arteries. Studies showed positive correlations
between carotid artery intima-media thickness (IMT), pulsatility index (PI), resistive index
(RI), and peak systolic velocity (PSV) with HbA1c, triglycerides, and random blood sugar
(RBS). HDL showed a negative correlation with CCA IMT.
