FFRangio: New Software Derives FFR Value from Angiography
Original Title: Image-based FFR during coronary catheterization. Presenter: Mariano Pellicano. Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is considered the gold standard to detect myocardial ischemia; however, due to its elevated cost, increased procedural time and potential complications associated to the guiding catheter, it is still underused. The FFRangio is a new technology based of angiographic images…
FAVOR: Diagnostic Accuracy of FFR derived from coronary angiography, the QFR
Original Title: Diagnostic accuracy of a fast computational approach to derive FFR from coronary X-ray angiography: results from the international multicenter FAVOR (Functional Assessment by Varios flow Reconstruction) pilot study. Presenter: Shengxian Tu. Pressure gradient across coronary stenosis is associated to flow and influenced by obstruction geometry. The QFR (quantitative flow ratio) is a…
