Modalities of RBCs rich thrombus attachment onto the stent. (a) Stent strut protruding through thrombus. (b) Higher magnification view from (a) (dashed rectangle), showing a platelets cap and biconcave RBCs. (c) Thrombus conforming with the stent strut. (d) Higher magnification view from c (region indicated by arrow), illustrating the thrombus contact area with the stent. (e) Bridges of fibrin between the adjacent stent struts. (f) High magnification view from (e) (region indicated by arrow).
