Axial ex vivo 2D CMR slices with histological validation. Top Row (A, C, and E) rabbits fed a normal diet. Bottom row (B, D, and F) rabbits fed 1% cholesterol diet + injury. CE liquid–crystal droplets are visualized by PLM in E and F. Intimal expansion and lipids were found in the 1% cholesterol diet + injury rabbit aorta compared to rabbits fed normal chow diet. In A and B, scale bars measure 1 mm
