A pressure drop across the stenosis. Values below 0.80 signal a haemodynamically significant epicardial lesion that benefits from revascularisation.
Intuitive. Any workhorse wire. Fast. One pass, three indices. Adaptable. FFR, CFR, IMR — from a single device.
Normal flow

Normal coronary physiology — all three indices within normal
limits.

A blunted fold-change in flow from rest to hyperaemia. Reserve below 2.5 reveals that the vessel cannot meet demand — either epicardial or microvascular in origin.
C · Microvascular
IMR
32
Small-vessel resistance isolated from the epicardial bed. Values above 25 indicate microvascular dysfunction — a cause of angina that epicardial imaging alone cannot reveal.
