Abstract Background: Moderate coronary artery lesions can be, or not, responsible for myocardial ischemia. The functional analysis of these lesions can be performed by invasive and noninvasive methods. Objective: To compare the functional analysis of moderate coronary lesions by fractional flow reserve and myocardial perfusion scintigraphy. Methods: 47 patients with stable coronary artery disease and at least one moderate coronary artery obstruction were prospectively studied. They were submitted to fractional flow reserve and myocardial perfusion scintigraphy with a median interval […]
