Comparison of PSS and Variations in PSS in Peri-MLA Segments With and Without Future MACE
PSS and variations in PSS at (A) all plaques, (B) VH-TCFAs, (C) Plaques with MLA ≤4 mm2, (D) plaques with PB ≥70% at the MLA, (E) VH-TCFA + MLA ≤4mm2, and (F) VH-TCFA + PB ≥70%. p < 0.05. MLA = minimal luminal area; PB = plaque burden; PSS = plaque structural stress; VH-TCFA = virtual histology thin-cap fibroatheroma; other abbreviations as in Figure 1.
