• Diagnostic Accuracy of Fractional Flow Reserve From Anatomic CT Angiography (2012, methodology): “However, CT cannot determine the hemodynamic significance of CAD, and even among CTidenti f ied obstructive stenoses confirmed by ICA, fewer than half are ischemia-causing.(2,3) These findings underscore an unreliable relationship of stenosis severity to ischemia and have raised concerns that use of”
• Diagnostic performance of noninvasive fractional flow reserve derived from coronary computed tomography angiography in suspected coronary artery disease: the NXT trial (Analysis of Coronary Blood Flow Using CT Angiography: Next Steps). (2014, background): “80 (2,13), and severely stenosed vessels by angiography may have measured FFR >0.”
• A machine-learning approach for computation of fractional flow reserve from coronary computed tomography. (2016, methodology): “While CCTA-based measurements of lesion anatomy correlate well with those from angiography, many severe lesions indicated by CCTA do not cause ischemia, leading to patients being unnecessarily referred to coronary angiography for invasive evaluation (17, 30).”
• Computational fluid dynamics applied to cardiac computed tomography for noninvasive quantification of fractional flow reserve: scientific basis. (2013, background): “Previous CTA studies have observed an overestimation of stenosis severity, and even among high-grade stenoses according to CTA confirmed by using ICA, only a minority cause ischemia (14,15).”
• Development and validation of a new adenosine-independent index of stenosis severity from coronary wave-intensity analysis: results of the ADVISE (ADenosine Vasodilator Independent Stenosis Evaluation) study. (2012, neutral): “Pa wave-free period [2]”
