The flowchart of CMR image analysis, histologic sample analysis (a) and intraplaque hemorrhage assessments (b). The shortest T1 value was defined as the mean T1 value of four adjacent pixels with the lowest T1 value to avoid measuring noise. The mean T1 value of intraplaque hemorrhage (IPH), mean T1 values of Type 1 IPH and the standard deviation of IPH were obtained from histological analysis
