También lo encuentro como grosor o espesor, aunque me parece más correcto «engrosamiento».

engrosamiento de la íntima


Explanation:
Lo más común es hablar de "engrosamiento de la íntima" o "engrosamiento de la capa íntima".
Fernando Navarro aclara que en español no decimos "intimal", sino que usamos la locucion prepositiva "de la intima".

Cuando hablamos de "grosor" (thickness), nos referimos al grueso de la íntima, no al proceso de volverse más gruesa. Lo que se mide es el "grosor de la íntima".
Se suele hablar de "grosor de la íntima-media (carotídeo)" o de "grosor de la íntima y de la media" porque se miden las dos capas, tanto la íntima como la media.
