Usefulness of FFR-CT to exclude haemodynamically significant lesions in high-risk NSTE-ACS

In patients with high-risk NSTE-ACS, FFR-CT offers better diagnostic accuracy - though not statistically significant - and a higher ability to rule out haemodynamically significant stenoses as compared to CCTA. This indicates that FFR-CT can reduce unnecessary invasive procedures by more accurately identifying patients requiring further intervention.

Abstract

In patients with high-risk NSTE-ACS, FFR-CT offers better diagnostic accuracy - though not statistically significant - and a higher ability to rule out haemodynamically significant stenoses as compared to CCTA. This indicates that FFR-CT can reduce unnecessary invasive procedures by more accurately identifying patients requiring further intervention.
