Reliability and Accuracy of Peri-Interventional Stenosis Grading in Peripheral Artery Disease Using Color-Coded Quantitative Fluoroscopy: A Phantom Study Comparing a Clinical and Scientific Postprocessing Software

Table 3

Results of the ANOVA analysis ROIs I to IV analyzed with ImageJ. Time-to-peak for ROI I to IV and all stenosis grades were calculated. Arithmetic mean, standard deviations, and p values (significant values are marked with an asterisk) of three repeated measurements are listed.
