EuroPCR 25 - Substudy findings from ILUMIEN-IV show that virtual flow reserve was slightly higher after angiography guidance rather than an optical coherence tomography (OCT)-based physiology assessment after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in high-risk angiographic lesions.We are joined by Dr Thomas Johnson (Bristol Heart Institute, Bristol, UK) to discuss findings from a retrospective… View more

AUTHOR: Ola WisniewskaA novel optical coherence tomography (OCT)-based physiological assessment, virtual flow reserve (VFR), has been shown to predict 2-year clinical outcomes following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), independent of anatomical measures like minimal stent area (MSA). This finding comes from a new substudy of the ILUMIEN IV trial, highlighting the potential of VFR to… View more
