Abstract
Total frbroplastic intimai thickness, F, comprises the two independent aspects, the aspect related to thickness per SMC, FC, and the aspect imparted by numbers of SMC’s, CT. Data on CT can therefore serve to measure its associated aspect of total intimai fibroplastic thickness, F. The two aspects of fibroplasia are here denoted the FC-linked component and the CT-linked component of arterial intimai fibroplasia, where F = CT*FC.
