Can we Use Contrast-FFR Instead of Adenosine-FFR for Evaluation of Intermediate Coronary Artery Stenosis?

Coronary fractional flow reserve (FFR) has been advocated as the gold standard approach in assessment of the intermediate coronary stenosis. The aim of the current study was to delineate efficacy of contrast versus adenosine FFR. Recent literatures about the definition, features, clinical relevance,...
