Average plaque time constants measured under stationary and moving conditions obtained using the leached fiber bundle (OFB-A) with a partial core size of 0.36. No statistically significant differences occurred between time constants obtained during stationary and moving conditions (paired t-tests: p=0.21). The high-risk plaque group defined as NCFAs with fibrous cap thickness <100 µm could be distinguished with highly statistically significant differences from each of the other groups in the presence of cardiac motion (p<0.05 in all cases).
