Figure

  • Figure 1 QFR-FFR or iFR hybrid approach. In the gray zone of the QFR (0.75–0.85), adoption of an invasive physiologic measurement could improve the diagnostic accuracy.FFR = fractional flow reserve; iFR = instantaneous wave-free ratio; PCI = percutaneous coronary intervention; QFR = quantitative flow ratio.
