Mathematically-Derived Criteria for Detecting Functionally Significant Stenoses by Using Coronary Computed Tomographic Angiography-Based Myocardial Segmentation and Intravascular Ultrasound-Measured Minimal Lumen Area
Abstract The lack of practical method for quantifying myocardial territories has made it difficult to link anatomic lesion morphology to the hemodynamic significance of coronary artery stenosis. The aim of this study was to develop and validate mathematically derived morphological criteria for predi...

Summary: | Abstract The lack of practical method for quantifying myocardial territories has made it difficult to link anatomic lesion morphology to the hemodynamic significance of coronary artery stenosis. The aim of this study was to develop and validate mathematically derived morphological criteria for predicting fractional flow reserve (FFR) |
