Evaluation of tissue characterization software. Cross-sectional images from software displaying the necrotic core (asterix) in yellow and fibrous tissue in blue are compared to images from miscroscopy. In A, the software correctly detects the size and intraplaque location of necrotic core which is not the case in B and C. However, these conclusions are only valid if we know that the spatial orientation of the compared cross-sectional images is the same.
