This study was designed to assess the extent of potential discrepancies between intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) measurement of intrastent minimal luminal diameter and to evaluate the impact of dilation pressures and the balloon:artery ratio on the assessme
The application of absolute coronary velocity reserve, relative coronary velocity reserve, and pressure-derived fractional flow reserve of the myocardium may have influence on decision making for angioplasty and stenting in patients after myocardial infarction. This case highlights the use and limit
