Several adjunctive technologies (such as quantitative coronary angiography, intravascular ultrasound, coronary flow velocity reserve, and fractional flow reserve) have been developed to enable interventional cardiologists to better assess intermediate coronary lesions. The advantages and limitations of each technique are described so that physicians can determine which technique or combination of techniques is best suited for their individual patient.Thursday, 17 Jan 2002 00:56:35 GMT
