Turbulent flow as a cause for underestimating coronary flow reserve measured by Doppler guide wire
BACKGROUND: Doppler-tipped coronary guide-wires (FW) are well-established tools in interventional cardiology to quantitatively analyze coronary blood flow. Doppler wires are used to measure the coronary flow velocity reserve (CFVR). The CFVR remains reduced in some patients despite anatomically succ...
