CT-Angiography Plaque Characteristics and Events in Deferral Patients by Invasive Fractional Flow Reserve
Sponsor: Fujita Health University
Summary
Fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided PCI for chronic coronary syndromes (CCS) is reported to improve the outcomes compared with angiography-guided PCI. However, cardiac-events still occur in FFR-deferral patients in long-term follow-up. Coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA)-defined high-risk-plaque (HRP) is known to relate future cardiac events. The investigators hypothesized that CTA might identify plaque features linked to future cardiac events in deferral patients.
