OCM of CAA. (a) Schematic drawing of a cerebral artery with the arterial wall structure. White arrows indicate the most frequent positions where A-β accumulates. (b)–(c) Histological images (Congo red and hematoxylin staining). A-β accumulation in the arterial wall structure and A-β plaques can be seen. (d) En-face projection over the first 50  μm underneath the tissue surface. (e) Histological image (Congo red and hematoxylin staining) of a control cerebral artery, where no A-β accumulations can be found. (f) Attenuation B-scan image. (g) Corresponding intensity B-scan of (f). (h)–(i) Intensity B-scans acquired in CAA-affected brains. (j) OCM B-scan image of the control cerebral artery. Yellow arrows indicate the A-β accumulation in the arteries and red arrows A-β plaques in the surrounding tissue. Examples of manually segmented accumulations are included as well.
