Determining the Significance of Coronary Plaque Lesions: Physiological Stenosis Severity and Plaque Characteristics
The evaluation of coronary lesions has evolved in recent years. Physiologic-guided revascularization (particularly with pressure-derived fractional flow reserve (FFR)) has led to superior outcomes compared to traditional angiographic assessment. A greater importance, therefore, has been placed on th...
