AB Summary: We describe a new sonographic technique, extended-field-of-view imaging, and its clinical application for carotid artery disease. The technique identifies identical structures on two successive images for position registration to make a panoramic image in real time without position sensors. In 39 of 41 subjects, this technique provided high-quality panoramic images that could not be obtained with conventional real-time sonography, and made findings in the carotid artery more interpretable.
