Branch flow distribution approach and its application in the calculation of fractional flow reserve in stenotic coronary artery

Objective: To calculate fractional flow reserve (FFR) based on computed tomography angiography (i.e., FFRCT) by considering the branch flow distribution in the coronary arteries. Background: FFR is the gold standard to diagnose myocardial ischemia caused by coronary stenosis. An accurate and no...
