USEFULNESS OF ATHEROSCLEROTIC PLAQUE DIFFUSENESS AND VOLUME BY CORONARY COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY ANGIOGRAPHY FOR PREDICTING CORONARY LESION-SPECIFIC ISCHEMIA BY FRACTIONAL FLOW RESERVE

USEFULNESS OF ATHEROSCLEROTIC PLAQUE DIFFUSENESS AND VOLUME BY CORONARY COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY ANGIOGRAPHY FOR PREDICTING CORONARY LESION-SPECIFIC ISCHEMIA BY FRACTIONAL FLOW RESERVE

Methods A total of 345 vessels (246 patients) derived from the prospective multicenter DeFACTO trial were analyzed for diameter stenosis (DS), minimal lumen area (MLA), aggregate plaque volume (APV), and % plaque diffuseness (PD). %PD was obtained by summation of all lesion lengths and divided by to...

Zusammenfassung:Methods A total of 345 vessels (246 patients) derived from the prospective multicenter DeFACTO trial were analyzed for diameter stenosis (DS), minimal lumen area (MLA), aggregate plaque volume (APV), and % plaque diffuseness (PD). %PD was obtained by summation of all lesion lengths and divided by total vessel length of each respective artery.
