Diagnostic Performances of Computed TomographIc Coronary Angiography and Intravascular Ultrasound (IMAGES-FFR)

March 23, 2015 updated by: Bon-Kwon Koo, Seoul National University Hospital

Diagnostic Performances of the Computed Tomographic Coronary Angiography and IntraVascular UltraSound to Evaluate Ischemia Causing Coronary Artery Stenosis

Diagnostic purposes of the coronary angiography is to detect stenosis (anatomy) and to detect ischemia related stenosis (function). Coronary angiography (CAG) is a gold standard invasive techniques, but has several limitations. Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) provides tomographic intra-luminal images. Coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) is helpful to assess precise anatomical information. Optimal functional criteria and their accuracy of IVUS and CCTA by fraction flow reserve (FFR) have not been compared yet.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Correlation between CCTA, IVUS and FFR will be evaluated. The presence of myocardial ischemia will be assessed by fractional flow reserve (FFR).

Diagnostic performance (sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive/negative predictive values and diagnostic accuracy) of each modality will be assessed and compared.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Diagnostic accuracy
Time Frame: 1 day

Evaluate and compare the diagnostic accuracy of the CCTA, IVUS and angiographic parameters for the prediction of myocardial ischemia (FFR<0.8)

  1. CCTA: % area stenosis
  2. IVUS: minimum lumen area
  3. Angiography: % diameter stenosis

Diagnostic accuracy of each parameter: (true positive+true negative)/total cases
