Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study was performed to investigate the anatomical attributes that determine myocardial territory of diagonal branches and to develop a prediction model for clinically relevant branches using myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) and coronary CT angiography (CCTA).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Bifurcation lesion is one of the most challenging lesion subsets in the field of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Despite the recent advances in PCI techniques and stent technology, most randomized studies failed to prove the superiority of systematic 2 stenting strategy compared with provisional side branch intervention strategy.

A certain amount of ischemic burden is required to achieve the benefit of revascularization over medical treatment. Compared with major epicardial vessels, side branches are smaller, more variable in anatomy, supplying less myocardium and less clinically relevant. Therefore, it is important to assess the myocardial mass at risk of side branches to determine the appropriate treatment strategy for bifurcation lesions. However, how to define the clinically relevant side branches which can be associated with the benefit of revascularization in a cardiac catheterization laboratory is not well-known.

The investigators performed this study to investigate the anatomical attributes that determine ischemic burden and myocardial territory of diagonal branches and to develop a prediction model for a clinically relevant diagonal branch using myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) and coronary CT angiography (CCTA).

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

MPI arm

For the MPI arm, patients with severe jailed diagonal branch disease with available MPI in 3 months were selected from the Seoul National University Hospital Cardiac Catheterization and MPI database.

No interventions assigned to this group

CCTA arm

For the CCTA arm, patients from a previous multicenter prospective CCTA registry were retrospectively reviewed for a post-hoc analysis.

No interventions assigned to this group
