Reduction of Lipid-Core Burden Index in Nonculprit Lesions at Follow-Up after ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction: A Randomized Study of Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffold versus Optimal Medical Therapy

<div>Comparison of baseline and follow-up QCA and IVUS values. (a) Comparison of values in group 1. (b) Comparison of values in group 2. QCA = quantitative coronary angiography; IVUS = intravascular ultrasound; RVD = reference vessel diameter; MLD = minimum lumen diameter; DS = diameter stenosis; MLA = minimum lumen area; and PB = plaque burden.</div>
