Assessment of coronary endothelial dysfunction using contemporary coronary function testing
As single parameters, both epicardial diameter and CBF were ineffective in accurately diagnosing CED compared to the current diagnostic criteria. Combining both parameters is necessary to diagnose the complete spectrum of CED, as missed diagnoses of deficient CBF responses (e.g., microvascular CED) and epicardial vasomotion (e.g., epicardial CED) might occur when relying on these parameters as single diagnostic criteria for CED.
