Figure 3. Coronary artery cross-sectional area (outer contour area) and lumen area vs. mean wall thickness for men (A) and women (B) participants.

Figure 3

Both outer contour area and lumen area were positively correlated mean wall thickness (r= 0.53 and 0.09, p< 0.0001 and <0.05 respectively for male and r= 0.62 and 0.09, p< 0.0001 and < 0.05 respectively for female), but the slope of the outer contour area increase was significantly greater than that of the lumen area increase (p<0.0001 for both men and women).
