description

FFR has become an established technology, and alternative approaches, like the instantaneous flow reserve (iFR), are currently being validated. FFR and iFR are generally easy to perform and interpret, but, as with all other technologies, oversimplification also carries risks. In the first chapter of this book, we present the basics of FFR measurements, including basic tips and tricks, and a short introduction to the devices available on the market.
