Fractional Flow Reserve: Comparison between Invasive and Non-invasive Methods for Calculation of FFR
The heart disease that affects millions of people worldwide is coronary artery disease. It is caused by a narrowing or blocking of the arteries due to plaque which restricts blood flow, and reduces the amount of oxygen to the heart. Angiogram as a tool, which represents an X-ray examination of the b...
