Abstract

Fractional flow reserve (FFR) provides the functional relevance of coronary atheroma. The FFR-guided strategy has been shown to reduce unnecessary stenting, improve overall health outcome, and to be cost-saving. The non-invasive, coronary Computerised Tomography (CT) angiography-derived FFR (cFFR) i...

The FFR-guided strategy has been shown to reduce unnecessary stenting, improve overall health outcome, and to be cost-saving. The non-invasive, coronary Computerised Tomography (CT) angiography-derived FFR (cFFR) is an emerging method in reducing invasive catheter based measurements.
