Description

ARE YOU FINDING FFR (FRACTIONAL FLOW RESERVE) IN KHARADI PUNE? FFR is defined as the ratio of mean distal coronary pressure to mean aortic pressure. Incorporating stenosis severity, myocardial territory and viability, and collateral perfusion, FFR is able to fully assess the functional significance of a coronary stenosis. Fractional flow reserve (FFR) measurement involves determining the ratio between the maximum achievable blood flow in a diseased coronary artery and the theoretical maximum flow in a normal coronary artery. An FFR of 1.0 is widely accepted as normal.
