“…Indeed, angiographic evaluation of the significance of the intermediate stenosis in the left main coronary artery was reported to be more difficult compared with lesions in other locations, although the impact of the decision is clinically greater in left main coronary artery lesions. [17][18][19] The present study also evaluated the variability for estimation of the components of scoring, such as the presence of true bifurcation or long lesion in the ULMCA lesions. As shown in Table 2, the reproducibility of estimation for the components of scoring was relatively poor compared with that for the total SYNTAX score.…”

“…In the second study in the literature, which includes 51 patients, moderate and severe lesions in coronary lesions were assessed [22]. The lesions were interpreted by four independent observers from different hospitals, and separated into three groups as: serious, not serious, and undesirable.…”

“…La FFR representa la gravedad de la limitación del flujo coronario post estenosis, es decir un FFR de 0.6 implica que el flujo en esa arteria es solo el 60% del máximo estimado. La utilidad de la toma de decisiones basado en esta téc-nica ha sido demostrada en múltiples escenarios clínicos, desde luego en lesiones "intermedias" 6 , tronco coronario común izquierdo [7][8] , bifurcaciones 9-10 y post infarto 11 sin alargar en forma significativa el tiempo del estudio y con una buena correlación con otros métodos no invasivos determinantes de isquemia 12 . Si cuenta con esta técnica en su laboratorio o piensa im-…”
