Computed Fractional Flow Reserve (FFTCT) Derived from Coronary CT Angiography
2013
Journal of Cardiovascular Translational Research
Recent advances in image-based modeling and computational fluid dynamics permit the calculation of coronary artery pressure and flow from typically acquired coronary computed tomography (CT) scans. Computed fractional flow reserve is the ratio of mean coronary artery pressure divided by mean aortic pressure under conditions of simulated maximal coronary hyperemia, thus providing a noninvasive estimate of fractional flow reserve (FFR CT ) at every point in the coronary tree.
