Abstract
OBJECTIVE: The fluoroscopy-assisted coronary volume measurement (FLASH) algorithm, based on contrast passage time and vessel size. is a simple and non-invasive method of assessing coronary blood volume. The present study evaluated the diagnostic performance of FLASH flow ratio-derived fractional flow reserve (FFRFLAME) compared to wire-based FFR (FFRWB).
