Sumario:Advances in computer technology and image processing now allow us to obtain from angiographic images a large variety of information on coronary physiology without the use of a guide-wire as a diagnostic information equivalent to FFR and iFR but also information allowing for the performance of a real virtual percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and finally the ability to obtain information to optimize the results of PCI. With specific software, it is now possible to have a real upgrading of invasive coronary angiography. In this review, we present the different advances in this field and discuss the future perspectives offered by this technology.
