Identification of Flow-Limiting Coronary Stenosis With PCS: A New Cost-Effective Index Derived From the Product of Corrected TIMI Frame Count and Percent Diameter Stenosis

Identification of Flow-Limiting Coronary Stenosis With PCS: A New Cost-Effective Index Derived From the Product of Corrected TIMI Frame Count and Percent Diameter Stenosis

Background: Identifying functional coronary stenosis with simple and cost-effective methods during invasive coronary angiography is still challenging. Corrected TIMI frame count (CTFC) is considered to be the frame count velocity of coronary blood flow. We aimed to propose a simple and cost-effectiv...
