Does FFR-CT improve diagnostic accuracy and the ability to rule out haemodynamically significant stenoses in patients with high-risk NSTE-ACS compared to CCTA?
FFR-CT may reduce unnecessary invasive procedures in high-risk NSTE-ACS patients by better ruling out hemodynamically significant stenoses compared to CCTA.
In patients with high-risk NSTE-ACS, FFR-CT offers better diagnostic accuracy - though not statistically significant - and a higher ability to rule out haemodynamically significant stenoses as compared to CCTA. This indicates that FFR-CT can reduce unnecessary invasive procedures by more accurately identifying patients requiring further intervention.
