Coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) analysis can help in the planning of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Fractional flow reserve derived from coronary CTA (FFR), coronary CTA-derived regional myocardial mass, and FFR virtual PCI planner can facilitate decisions concerning sheath and guide catheter selection, stent lengths on the basis of predicted post-PCI FFR, optimal fluoroscopic angles, evaluation of provisional vs 2-stent bifurcation PCI techniques, and assessment of the magnitude of jeopardized myocardial mass in cases with side branch compromise. This case series illustrates the emerging opportunities for coronary CTA-based planning of bifurcation PCI.
冠状动脉计算机断层扫描血管造影(CTA)分析有助于经皮冠状动脉介入治疗(PCI)的规划。基于冠状动脉CTA的血流储备分数(FFR)、冠状动脉CTA衍生的局部心肌质量以及FFR虚拟PCI规划器,可辅助做出有关鞘管和引导导管选择、基于PCI术后预测FFR的支架长度、最佳透视角度、临时与双支架分叉PCI技术评估以及侧支受损时危及心肌质量大小评估的决策。本病例系列展示了基于冠状动脉CTA的分叉PCI规划所带来的新机遇。
