Noninvasive FFR Derived From Coronary CT Angiography: Management and Outcomes in the PROMISE Trial

Conclusions
In this hypothesis-generating study of patients with stable chest pain referred to ICA from CTA, an FFRCT of ≤0.80 was a better predictor of revascularization or major adverse cardiac events than severe stenosis on CTA. Adding FFRCT may improve efficiency of referral to ICA from CTA alone.
