Figure 1 Change in vessel (A), plaque (B), and lumen (C) area from post-procedure to nine months for TAXUS and the bare-metal control groups in the stented segments and the edges. Measurements were made every 1 mm, and baseline and follow-up measurements are aligned to the stent edges. Results are reported for the proximal and distal 7 mm of each stent to correct for differences in stent length. Within the stent, neointima growth is displayed in panel B rather than plaque outside the stent. *p < 0.05; +p < 0.01; #p < 0.001.
