Abstract | ||||
Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is considered the primary reference criterion used for the evaluation of functional significance of coronary artery stenosis. It helps the physician to define appropriate angiographic patients with borderline incidence coronary lesions that should or should not be treated with a stent. FFR was first applied as part of a clinical trial in Egypt in 2013, and was used in clinical practice in 2015 and was first used in our Cath Laboratory at Misr University for Science and Technology (MUST) hospital, 6 October 2016, Egypt. | ||||
