Prediction of Plaque Progression in Coronary Arteries Based on a Novel Hemodynamic Index Calculated From Virtual Stenosis Method

RationalePredicting the sites in coronary arteries that are susceptible to plaque deposition is essential for the development of clinical treatment strategies and prevention. However, to date, no physiological biomarkers for this purpose have been developed. We hypothesized that the possibility of p...
