Figure 2

Intravascular ultrasound images of coronary arteries. (A) Gray scale images in systole. (B) Gray scale images in diastole at the same site as (A). (C) Integrated backscatter intravascular ultrasound images at the same site as (A) and (B). (Upper) Representative cross-sectional images that showed reduction of plaque area from diastole to systole. (Lower) Representative cross-sectional images that showed increment of plaque area from diastole to systole.
