A significant drop in pressure can be observed also in the absence of focal lesions. The presence of hemodynamically relevant, diffuse atherosclerosis is actually very frequent and it may affect as many as 50 % of those patients who have at least one focal lesion in another vessel. FFR in this setting may clarify the possible reason for residual angina after successful stenting.
