A new CFD based non-invasive method for functional diagnosis of coronary stenosis

Abstract Background Accurate functional diagnosis of coronary stenosis is vital for decision making in coronary revascularization. With recent advances in computational fluid dynamics (CFD), fractional flow reserve (FFR) can be derived non-invasively from coronary computed tomography angiography ima...
