Comparative Outcomes of Fractional Flow Reserve and Intravascular Ultrasound Guidance for Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Intermediate Lesions: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

FFR and IVUS are both effective for guiding PCI, with similar outcomes in terms of MACE, mortality, MI, TVR and PCI procedures performed. Modality selection should be tailored to lesion complexity, institutional expertise and resource availability.

Abstract

FFR and IVUS are both effective for guiding PCI, with similar outcomes in terms of MACE, mortality, MI, TVR and PCI procedures performed. Modality selection should be tailored to lesion complexity, institutional expertise and resource availability.
