Comparison between different approaches to evaluate fibrous cap thickness in sequential OCT studies.

CONCLUSIONS: In this methodological study we observed a good reproducibility for quantitative plaque measurements with OCT confirming its reliability for serial assessment. In particular, longitudinal measurement in multiple adjacent frames seems to be the more accurate and reproducible approach for sequential FCt assessment.
