  1. Due to the vessel length of the left mainstem being substantially less than 4 cm, vessel sharpness for the whole vessel is displayed only. A paired t-test or a Wilcoxon Signed Rank test was used to compare differences between each method. A p value and 95% confidence interval are provided for each comparison. Data is displayed as mean ± SD. Statistically significant values (p<0.05) are indicated in bold
