Abstract
Coronary atherosclerosis, a progressive disease, has long been the focus of clinical investigations aimed at understanding its natural evolution and response to medical therapies. While traditional imaging modalities, such as intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA), have shed light on plaque characteristics and vulnerability to rupture leading to clinical events, the clinical implications of coronary physiological techniques associated with increased risk of clinical events remain underexplored. The incremental prognostic value of 3V-quantitative flow ratio (QFR) advocates for its integration into routine clinical evaluations as a non-invasive tool for risk stratification in coronary artery disease patients.
期刊介绍：
A presentation of original, peer-reviewed original articles, review and case reports relative to all phases of all vascular diseases, Angiology (ANG) offers more than a typical cardiology journal. With approximately 1000 pages per year covering diagnostic methods, therapeutic approaches, and clinical and laboratory research, ANG is among the most informative publications in the field of peripheral vascular and cardiovascular diseases. This journal is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE). Average time from submission to first decision: 13 days
