Fig. 5

The peak cap stress (PCS) of 73 plaque models from ground truth (histology) (x-axis) versus the peak cap stress of the reconstructed necrotic core geometry (y-axis) are depicted. In a the PCS based on the NC reconstruction using group averaged rNCt estimation, PCSGA, and b PCS based on the NC reconstruction using the plaque specific rNCt estimation, PCSPS. The closed circles indicate the cases for which the locations of the peak cap stresses was not shifted with respect to the ground truth, whereas the open circles did shift
