Numerical Simulation and Clinical Implications of Stenosis in Coronary Blood Flow
Figure 9
Distributions of FFRCT based on numerical simulations on patient-specific left coronary trees reconstructed from two patients’ CTA images. (a) The patient has a moderate stenosis (DS = 51%) at proximal LAD, whose FFR is 0.97 via invasive angiography and its FFRCT is 0.98 predicted by CFD. (b) The patient has a moderate stenosis (DS = 69%) at mid LAD, whose FFR is 0.73 via invasive angiography and its FFRCT is 0.74 predicted by CFD.
