Diagnostic accuracy of coronary opacification derived from coronary computed tomography angiography to detect ischemia: first validation versus single-photon emission computed tomography

Diagnostic accuracy of coronary opacification derived from coronary computed tomography angiography to detect ischemia: first validation versus single-photon emission computed tomography

Abstract Background Estimation of functional relevance of a coronary stenosis by fractional flow reserve (FFR) from coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) has recently provided encouraging results. Due to its limited availability, the corrected contrast opacification (CCO) decrease and the...
