Abstract
Atherosclerotic diseases of coronary vessels are the main reasons of myocardial ischemia. The value of the fractional flow reserve (FFR) factor is the golden standard for making decision on coronary network surgical treatment. The FFR measurements require expensive endovascular diagnostics. We propose a noninvasive method of the virtual FFR assessment in patient-specific coronary network based on angiography and computer tomography data. Also we analyze sensitivity of the model to the heart stroke volume.
