Efficacy assessment of iliac artery restenosis.

(A) Representative H&E-stained arterial cross-sections from different treatment groups in a rabbit model of iliac artery restenosis (top). Zoomed-in H&E-stained arterial cross-sections highlight the different vascular remodeling from the different treatment groups (bottom). I, intima; M, media; E, externa. Scale bar, 100 μm. (B,C) Quantitative analysis of luminal area and intima-to-media area ratio from the different treatment groups. (D,E) Representative zoomed-in H&E-stained arterial cross-sections from PLM + US group and control group highlight the significant reduction of disorder cell arrangement and irregular cell shape (red arrows). Scale bar: 100 μm.
