Beschreibungen/Notizen
Noninvasive fractional flow reserve derived from coronary CT angiography (FFR
) is increasingly used in patients with coronary artery disease as a gatekeeper to the catheterization laboratory. While there is emerging evidence of the clinical benefit of FFR
in patients with moderate coronary disease as determined with coronary CT angiography, there has been less focus on interpretation, reporting, and integration of FFR
results into routine clinical practice. Because FFR
analysis provides a plethora of information regarding pressure and flow across the entire coronary tree, standardized criteria on interpretation and reporting of the FFR
analysis result are of crucial importance both in context of the clinical adoption and in future research. This report represents expert opinion and recommendation on a standardized FFR
interpretation and reporting approach. Published under a CC BY 4.0 license.
