Detecting Obstructive Coronary Disease With CT Angiography and Noninvasive Fractional Flow Reserve Detecting Obstructive Coronary Disease

Physicians commonly encounter patients reporting chest discomfort. In these cases, the physician needs to determine whether the patient has obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD), and if so, whethe...

Non-Invasive Fractional Flow Reserve In The Identification Of Flow-Restricting Arterial Blockage In Patients With Suspected Coronary Artery Disease

Data presented from the prospective Determination of Fractional Flow Reserve by Anatomic Computed Tomographic Angiography (DeFACTO) study show that, when compared to standard coronary angiography (CT)...

Non-invasive fractional flow reserve in the identification of flow-restricting arterial blockage

Data presented today from the prospective Determination of Fractional Flow Reserve by Anatomic Computed Tomographic Angiography (DeFACTO) study show that, when compared to standard coronary angiograph...

PCI guided by fractional flow reserve versus medical therapy alone in stable coronary disease

Patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) had a lower need for urgent revascularisation when receiving fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided PCI plus the best available medical therapy (MT) th...

Fractional flow reserve-guided PCI helpful for serial coronary artery stenoses

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) helps manage serial stenoses in the same artery, Korean researchers say.

PCI Guided By Fractional Flow Reserve Versus Medical Therapy Alone In Stable Coronary Disease: The FAME 2 Trial

Patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) had a lower need for urgent revascularisation when receiving fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided PCI plus the best available medical therapy (MT) th...

Fractional flow reserve CT shows potential to non-invasively identify coronary artery disease

A study published in the most recent issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) presented encouraging news regarding physicians' ability to determine blood flow and associated cor...

Plaque volume derived from three-dimensional reconstruction of coronary angiography predicts the fractional flow reserve.

To compare the data calculated from the three dimensional (3D) reconstruction of a coronary stenosis with the fractional flow reserve (FFR) values measured on the same coronary segment.

Short-term effects of enhanced external counterpulsation on transthoracic coronary flow velocity and reserve in patients with coronary slow flow.

Classification performance of instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) and fractional flow reserve in a clinical population of intermediate coronary stenoses: results of the ADVISE registry.

Aims: To evaluate the classification agreement between instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) and fractional flow reserve (FFR) in patients with angiographic intermediate coronary stenoses. Methods and r...

The physiological significance of coronary aneurysms in Kawasaki disease.

Aims: A coronary aneurysm is one of the most frequent complications of Kawasaki disease, and yet there is little information concerning the haemodynamic abnormality influenced by the existence of a co...
