Abstract

During the past 2 decades, fractional flow reserve (FFR) obtained at percutaneous coronary angiography that denotes pressure gradient across coronary artery stenosis has been considered diagnostic of ischemia-causing lesions and useful in guiding revascularization and prognostication [ 1 ]. FFR derived noninvasively, from computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models based on CT angiography (CTA), has been suggested of a moderate-to-high diagnostic accuracy (0.69 to 0.86) in detecting ischemia-causing coronary stenoses with reference to the invasive FFR
[ 2 ].
