Fractional Flow Reserve and Instantaneous Wave‐Free Ratio Predict Pathological Wall Shear Stress in Coronary Arteries: Implications for Understanding the Pathophysiological Impact of Functionally Significant Coronary Stenoses

BACKGROUND: The pathophysiological mechanism behind adverse outcomes associated with ischemia‐inducing epicardial coronary stenoses and microcirculatory dysfunction remains unclear. Wall shear stress (WSS) plays an important role in atherosclerotic plaque progression and vulnerability. We aimed to e...
