Fig. 1

Histology of the radial artery samples. a. Morphology of the routinely (HE) stained vessel showing intimal thickening (I) and no detectable mineral content. I, intima; M, media; A, adventitia; for I/M ratio calculations thicknesses of intima and media were measured in two locations. b. Advanced calcification in artery stained with von Kossa method. c-f. Radial artery calcifications of various grades in samples stained with alizarin red
