Text: In lesions classified as TCFA, the minimum lumen area (MLA) decreased from 8. 1 (interquartile range [IQR] : 7. 4 to 8. 8) mm (2) at baseline to 7. 8 (IQR : 7. 2 to 8. 4) mm (2) at follow-up, p < 0. 05 ; this was associated with an increase in percent necrotic core at the MLA site (14 % [IQR : 12 to 16] to 19 % [IQR : 17 to 22], p < 0. 0001) and over the entire length of the lesion (14 % [IQR : 12 to 16] to 18 % [IQR : 17 to 20], p < 0. 0001).
