[Abstract] Stroke is one of the major diseases that threaten human health， early diagnosis and treatment are very important for stroke. Carotid intima-media thickness(CIMT) is measured noninvasively to diagnosis stroke， and it is a independent predictor for stroke because its thickening can timely predict the incidence and development of stroke. As an important predictor of cardiovascular disease， more and more attention is played on CIMT. In this review， we will make a summary on the important role of CIMT in stroke and the mechanisms of carotid intima-media thickening in stroke as well as the potential use of traditional Chinese medicine in treating carotid intima-media thickening.
