  1. Summary ROC curves for the diagnosis of carotid artery stenosis using CUS. Gray triangle represents data from North American Symptomatic Carotid Endarterectomy Trial (NASCET). Black circles represent all other studies. Dotted curve is for all studies including NASCET. Black curve is for studies excluding NASCET.

  2. Summary ROC curves for the diagnosis of carotid artery stenosis using MRA. Black circles represent good and fair quality studies. Gray triangles represent poor quality studies. Dotted curve is for all studies. Black curve is for fair and good quality studies.

  3. Summary ROC curves for the diagnosis of carotid artery stenosis using CUS and MRA. Black circles represent good and fair quality studies. Gray triangles represent poor quality studies. Dotted curve is for all studies. Black curve is for fair and good quality studies. (Dotted curve may not be visible due to overlap with black curve.)
