Radiographic Imaging Validation and EvALuation for Angio iFR (ReVEAL iFR)
Cardiac IschemiaCoronary Artery Disease1 moreThe Philips Angio-iFR medical software device is intended to provide information on the functional significance of a coronary artery lesion to provide guidance on diagnostic decisions similar to that obtained through invasive measures of iFR and FFR. The software application uses the vessel geometry obtained from a coronary angiographic image together with a lumped parameter physiological model to provide the associated iFR and FFR estimates.
3D-QFR in Non-selected Angiographic Stenosis. A Spanish Multicentre Study.
Coronary StenosisCoronary Artery DiseasePhysiology-based decision-making about the need for revascularisation in patients with stable coronary heart disease has consistently proven better clinical outcomes than a merely anatomical approach. However, against the current recommendations, revascularisation in most of patients with chronic coronary syndromes still relies on coronary angiography alone. The increase in costs and in procedural complexity of wire-based physiology may explain the latter. Therefore, a novel non-invasive functional quantitative flow ratio (QFR) index was created in order to solve it. A retrospective and multicentre study is performed to assess the 5-year prognosis of patients undergoing coronary angiography through a centralized QFR analysis. Consecutive participants with confirmed or suspected diagnosis of stable coronary disease who underwent a coronary angiography between 01/01/2015 and 12/31/2015 were included. Aims of the study: To evaluate the prognosis of stable coronary disease depending on the functional assessment of coronary artery disease. To determine the % of percutaneous coronary interventions that could be avoided if this study had been carried out through functional assessment of coronary artery disease based on 3-dimensional vessel reconstruction.
Assessment of Coronary Stenoses Using Coronary CT-angiography and Non-invasive Fractional Flow Reserve...
Myocardial IschemiaThe purpose of this study is to determine whether a novel non-invasive method to estimate coronary blood flow (FFRct) is applicable to evaluate the functional significance of coronary stenoses in non-culprit vessels in a population of patients with recent STEMI (ST-elevation myocardial infarction) and multivessel disease. The diagnostic performance and reproducibility of FFRct as well as the qualitative and quantitative correlation between FFRct and the regional coronary blood flow will be examined.

EXCEL Clinical Trial (Universal Registry)
Chronic Coronary OcclusionLeft Main Coronary Artery Disease7 moreThe purpose of the Universal Registry is to assess the proportion and reasons for which subjects with angiographically significant ULMCA disease requiring revascularization during the time course of this study are not randomized; to compare the baseline characteristics of subjects; and to assess the variability in randomization eligibility and treatment patterns.
Vasodilator Free Measure of Fractional Flow Reserve
Coronary StenosisNarrowing of coronary arteries interferes with blood flow and can cause chest pain. Cardiologists sometimes quantify the extent of the narrowing by measuring the fractional flow reserve (the ratio of the pressure in the aorta to the pressure downstream of the narrowing under conditions of maximal flow). We propose a new technique based on principles of wave intensity analysis (WIA) to better assess coronary stenosis and the significance of the narrowing without the need for administration of vasodilator agents such as adenosine. This would simplify assessment and improve our ability to advise patients whether stent treatment will help their symptoms.
Comparison of Fractional Flow Reserve and Intravascular Ultrasound
Coronary Artery StenosisThis study will evaluate the relationship of Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) and Minimal Lumen Area (MLA) by IntraVascular UltraSound (IVUS) by comparing the results of the both tests which is done as a part of the cardiac catheterization.

Coronary Artery DiseaseCoronary Artery StenosisPatients planned for elective conventional coronary angiography will undergo CT coronary angiography (Dual Source CT) in order to assess the correlation of stenosis detection and therapeutic advice between conventional and CT coronary angiography. We hypothesize that their is a good correlation between conventional and CT coronary angiography for stenosis detection and therapeutic advice.
