Coronary CT angiography-based estimation of myocardial perfusion territories for coronary artery FFR and wall shear stress simulation

Abstract This study aims to apply a CCTA-derived territory-based patient-specific estimation of boundary conditions for coronary artery fractional flow reserve (FFR) and wall shear stress (WSS) simulation. The non-invasive simulation can help diagnose the significance of coronary stenosis and the li...
