Association between vessel-specific coronary Aggregated plaque burden, Agatston score and hemodynamic significance of coronary disease (The CAPTivAte study).

Background: CT coronary angiography (CTCA) is a guideline-endorsed assessment for patients with stable angina and suspected coronary disease. Although associated with excellent negative predictive value in ruling out obstructive coronary disease, there are limitations in the ability of CTCA to predict hemodynamically significant coronary disease. The CAPTivAte study aims to assess the utility of Aggregated Plaque Burden (APB) in predicting ischemia based on Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR).
