The relationship between IVUS three layer and the biological intima, media and adventitia

Intima is dense and will appear as a “white” layer between the media and the blood speckles.

Adventitia is composed of collagen that highly reflected by ultrasound (appears white)

Media is made of homogeneous smooth muscle cells and is not reflected by ultrasound (appears dark)

Normal coronary artery

IVUS three layer does not equal to the biological intima, media and adventitia
