Rationale and design of the precise percutaneous coronary intervention plan (P3) study: Prospective evaluation of a virtual computed tomography-based percutaneous intervention planner.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Fractional flow reserve (FFR) measured after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has been identified as a surrogate marker for vessel related adverse events. FFR can be derived from standard coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA). Moreover, the FFR derived from coronary CTA (FFR_CT ) Planner is a tool that simulates PCI providing modeled FFR_CT values after stenosis opening.

Aim

To validate the accuracy of the FFR_CT Planner in predicting FFR after PCI with invasive FFR as a reference standard.

Methods

Prospective, international and multicenter study of patients with chronic coronary syndromes undergoing PCI. Patients will undergo coronary CTA with FFR_CT prior to PCI. Combined morphological and functio
