Figure 4 Baseline and follow-up quantitative coronary angiography measurements (up to four years after cardiac transplantation) of proximal and distal diameters in arteries with previous intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) exams (n = 60) and without previous IVUS exams (n = 33). A significant decrease in proximal and distal vessel diameters could be demonstrated in the nonimaged and imaged arteries. However, the change in diameter between baseline and follow-up exams in nonimaged as well as imaged arteries was not statistically different (see p value). Diamond/solid line = imaged proximal; triangle/solid line = nonimaged proximal; diamond/dashed line = imaged distal; triangle/dashed line = nonimaged distal.
