After controlling for known CV risk factors, all FFR-CT subgroups remained significantly associated with MI, revascularization. (HealthDay News) — For patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), ...

It hasn’t been a good couple of years for fractional flow reserve (FFR), whether it’s being tested in stable patients with multivessel disease undergoing PCI, against traditional coronary angiography ...

In patients with coronary artery disease scheduled for a percutaneous intervention (PCI), fractional flow reserve (FFR) assessment at the time of angiography significantly improves outcome, but it has ...

Observational data suggested no benefit to preoperative flow assessment for patients with first-time isolated CABG. Flow assessment would ostensibly have been used to guide decisions on whether to ...
