Since ICUS images show only very thin cross-sections of the vessel, it is difficult for the observer to mentally build up a 3D representation of the investigated seg

On the other hand, sufficient spatial resolution - at best sub-millimeter - is required to adequately visualize small and complex anatomical structures like the coronary arteries.

It has been shown that the risk for coronary events is associated and strongly correlated with the amount of coronary calcium (. et al. 2000; . et al. 2000).
