Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is the current gold standard method to quantify coronary blood flow (CBF) changes in coronary artery disease. In a large comparative study on 203 diseased arteries, Aubiniere-Robb et al. analyzed the degree of concordance between fractional and absolute CBF reduction and identified the FFR areas with high discordance. Patients with those FFR values may benefit from the additional absolute CBF measures.
