Relationship Between the Width and Depth of Lesions Obtained With Similar FTI and LSI Levels (A) A schematic representation of the relationship between the width and depth of lesions obtained with similar FTI levels. Four subgroups were characterized: FTI <300 (green dots), FTI between 301 and 600 (red dots), FTI between 601 and 900 (pink dots), and FTI >901 (blue dots). Even if lesion dimensions were significantly correlated to FTI (p < 0.01) (Figure 5, left column), dots belonging to the same FTI subgroup are more scattered through the chart compared with points obtained with constant LSI levels (Figure 6B). (B) A schematic representation of the relationship between the width and depth of lesions obtained targeting 4 different LSI levels: 5 (green dots), 6 (red dots), 7 (pink dots), and 8 (blue dots). LSI was a significant predictor of lesion dimensions (p < ) (Figure 5, right column). The dashed lines represent 95% confidence intervals. Abbreviations as in Figures 2 and 5.
