Fractional flow reserve (FFR), calculated using a coronary presure wire, is an index of the physiological significance of a coronary stenosis and is defined as the ratio of maximal blood flow in a stenotic artery to normal maximal flow.  FFR in a normal artery is 1.0 – a value <0.80 identifies ischaemia causing lesions with […]
