Figure 3 The frequency and severity of angiographic dissections observed immediately after balloon angioplasty and immediately after local drug delivery. The letters A through F denote progressive grades of severity, with the corresponding boxes representing the number of patients with dissections in each grade. The width of each interconnecting line is proportional to the number of patients involved. One patient was excluded from this blinded analysis because his cineangiographic film was not available.
