Impact of Coronary Tortuosity on Coronary Pressure: Numerical Simulation Study

BACKGROUND: Coronary tortuosity (CT) is a common coronary angiographic finding. Whether CT leads to an apparent reduction in coronary pressure distal to the tortuous segment of the coronary artery is still unknown. The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of CT on coronary pressure distr...
