Sumario:The advancement that took place in assessing fractional flow reserve (FFR) using various competing modalities led to numerous research trials to evaluate the clinical impact of each. Among those trials is the recently published PLATFORM study. The data was designed to compare two clinical scenarios; a combination of computed fluid dynamics with computed tomographic angiography (CTA-guided strategy) in non-obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) on one arm, compared to the standard practice representing the other clinical arm. The study’s results were evaluated for further evidence and clinical insights.
