Assessing Computational Fractional Flow Reserve From Optical Coherence Tomography in Patients With Intermediate Coronary Stenosis in the Left Anterior Descending Artery

摘要

Background-Intravascular optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging provides limited information on the functional assessment of coronary stenosis. We evaluated a new approach to OCT image-based computation modeling, which can be used to estimate the fractional flow reserve (FFR) in patients with intermediate coronary stenosis.
