Parameters with superscript asterisk were statistically different. Values are presented as mean ± SD. All comparisons were done using T-test: a. t = 5.543, DF = 61.969, P<0.001 b. t = 0.372, DF = 73.1
p-values are shown for each method comparison for the 161 arteries experiments described in Section 2.7 and for the 3,904 arteries experiment described in Section 2.8 (in parenthesis).
