Summary

Quantitative flow reserve (QFR), derived from coronary angiography, has shown high accuracy in detecting significant lesions. Ultrasonic flow ratio (UFR), a new development from IVUS, integrates physiological estimation with intravascular imaging. Although both QFR and UFR are effective, there's no conclusive evidence favoring one over the other. The study aims to compare UFR and QFR's diagnostic performance against the conventional FFR standard in detecting significant coronary lesions.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Coronary angiography, Fractional Flow Reserve measurement, Intravascular ultrasound

Invasive CAG was conducted following standard clinical procedures, encompassing multiple projections of both the left and right coronary arteries. The FFR was precisely measured using either an intracoronary pressure wire (Pressure Wire X; Abbott Vascular, Santa Clara, USA) or a rapid-exchange pressure microcatheter (Insight Lifetech, Shanghai, China) during peak hyperemia. This state of maximal hyperemia was achieved through the intravenous infusion of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) at a concentration of 150 μg/kg/min, administered via the forearm vein. Upon completion of the FFR assessment, the pressure wire or microcatheter was carefully retracted to the tip of the guiding catheter for a routine drift check. IVUS imaging was meticulously conducted using the iLab™ IVUS system, coupled with a 40-MHz OptiCross IVUS catheter (Boston Scientific, Fremont, USA), at a steady pullback speed of 0.5 mm/s.
