From: Atherosclerotic plaque features relevant to rupture-risk detected by clinical photon-counting CT ex vivo: a proof-of-concept study

Fig. 2

ROIs in histological and PCCT images. Representative plaque sections visualised with a Russel-Movat’s pentachrome stain (a) and von Kossa stain (b), with corresponding images of the same plaque locations (in the same plane) acquired during photon-counting CT (PCCT) scanning (c) are shown. Analysed plaque features—IPH, calcium, fibrous cap, fibrosis (elsewhere than in cap), lipid, necrosis and thrombus—are marked by circles and annotated. Black scale bars on the left represent 2 mm.
