MRR was assessed across all three coronary branches, utilizing PET-derived coronary flow reserve and invasive FFR measurements. CCTA was used to assess patient and vessel-specific plaque volumes. Percentage atheroma volume (PAV) was defined as total plaque volume divided by vessel volume. The study included 142 patients (55% male, 57.5±8.6 years) with 426 vessels with a mean MRR of 3.77±1.64.

Median follow-up was 829 days (IQR 224-1434). A positive stress echocardiogram was associated with a greater risk of myocardial infarction (HR 2.71, 95% CI 1.73-4.24, P<0.001), and a composite endpoint of cardiac-related mortality and myocardial infarction (HR 2.03, 95% CI 1.41-2.93, P<0.001).
