  Figure 1 Coronary CT angiography, CAG, and IVUS images.(A) Baseline coronary CT angiography of LAD (left: 3D-VR, right: curved MPR). (B) Baseline coronary CT angiography of RCA (left: 3D-VR, right: curved MPR). (C) CAG of LAD. (D) CAG of RCA. (E) IVUS image of the proximal LAD (left: grayscale, right: VH-IVUS). (F) IVUS image of the mid RCA (left: grayscale, right: VH-IVUS). (G) Changes in LAD lesions after treatment (upper: baseline coronary CT angiography, lower: follow-up coronary CT angiography [5 months later]). (H) Changes in RCA lesions after treatment (left: baseline coronary CT angiography, right: follow-up coronary CT angiography [5 months later]).3D-VR = three-dimensional volume-rendered; CAG = coronary angiography; CT = coronary computed tomography; IVUS = intravascular ultrasound; LAD = left anterior descending artery; MPR = multi-planar reconstruction; RCA = right coronary artery; VH = virtual histology.
