AccuFFRangio demonstrates high diagnostic accuracy compared to invasive FFR, offering a potential wire-free alternative for the physiological assessment of coronary stenosis.
BACKGROUND: Although fractional flow reserve (FFR) is the contemporary standard to detect hemodynamically significant coronary stenosis, it remains underused for the need of pressure wire and hyperemic stimulus. Coronary angiography-derived FFR could break through these barriers. The aim of this study was to assess the feasibility and performance of a novel diagnostic modality deriving FFR from invasive coronary angiography (AccuFFRangio) for coronary physiological assessment. METHODS AND The sensitivity, specificity, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 95.83% (95% CI, 89.67%-98.85%), 94.71% (95% CI, 90.73%-97.33%), and 0.972 (95% CI, 0.947-0.988), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: AccuFFRangio derived from coronary angiography alone has high diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity compared with FFR. AccuFFRangio bears the potential for increasing the adoption of functional assessment of coronary artery stenosis and improving the use of physiological guided decision-making.

Jiang et al. (2024) conducted a cross-sectional in Hemodynamically significant coronary stenosis. AccuFFRangio vs. Fractional flow reserve (FFR) was evaluated on Diagnostic accuracy (sensitivity, specificity, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve) (AUC 0.972, 95% CI 0.947-0.988, p=<0.001). AccuFFRangio derived from coronary angiography alone demonstrated high diagnostic accuracy compared with FFR, yielding an area under the curve of 0.972 (95% CI 0.947-0.988).
