Comparison of Fractional Flow Reserve and Myocardial Perfusion Imaging in Saphenous Vein Grafts.
Catheter Cardiovasc Interv
February 2025
Background: Revascularization decision-making for saphenous vein grafts (SVGs) relies on angiographic lesion severity estimation, as studies on fractional flow reserve (FFR) for detecting ischemia in SVGs are scarce.
Aims: To compare FFR and quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) of SVGs against myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) and to establish an optimal FFR threshold for SVGs.
Methods: This cross-sectional registry study included symptomatic patients with prior coronary artery bypass grafting who underwent single-photon emission computed tomography, positron emission tomography, or stress perfusion cardiac magnetic resonance imaging and had FFR measurements of ≥ 1 SVGs.
