Exploring diastolic pressure ratio to fractional flow reserve discordance and a hypothesis on tailoring diastolic pressure ratio cut-off values to improve diagnostic accuracy in the mid- and distal-LAD

Previous studies have identified a higher rate of discordance between non-hyperaemic pressure ratios and FFR in the LAD when compared to the other two coronary arteries. We hypothesised that in keeping with recently published data, we would identify a higher discordance rate between diastolic pressu...
