In order to correlate the percent of coronary lumen reduction measured by cineangiography and by pathology, we reviewed the coronary trees of 12 patients who died of coronary heart disease. The 36 arterial segments were divided in two groups: group I showing a good correlation in its 24 segments (less than 15% difference between both methods, r = 0.90), and group II (12 segments) with a poor correlation. No significant differences were found every time there was a greater than 70% stenosis. Milder lesions have a higher rate of discrepancies, due to pathology overestimation because of collapse of the vessel and tissue shrinkage, and to the angiographic underestimation that appears when comparing the stenotic segment with a remaining presumably normal artery.
为了对比通过血管造影和病理学测量的冠状动脉管腔狭窄百分比，我们回顾了12例死于冠心病患者的冠状动脉情况。36个动脉节段被分为两组：第一组24个节段两者相关性良好（两种方法之间差异小于15%，r = 0.90），第二组（12个节段）相关性较差。当狭窄程度大于70%时，未发现显著差异。较轻病变的差异率较高，这是由于血管塌陷和组织收缩导致病理学高估，以及将狭窄节段与剩余推测正常的动脉进行比较时出现的血管造影低估。
