## Abstract The angiographic assessment of an ambiguous left main coronary artery (LMCA) stenosis is often difficult and not reliable. Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and fractional flow reserve (FFR) have improved the diagnostic utility of an ambiguous LMCA stenosis. The combined role of FFR and I
Objective: To validate an automated algorithm for the measurement of lumen volumes of coronary arteries. Background: Current intravascular ultrasound systems use absolute measurements of and changes in areas and diameters for the assessment of coronary artery disease. However, the coronary artery is
