| Abstract |
Coronary artery disease is associated to high mortality and morbidity rates and an accurate diagnostic assessment during heart catheterization has a fundamental role in prognostic stratification and treatment choices. Coronary angiography has been integrated by intravascular imaging modalities, namely intravascular ultrasound and optical coherence tomography, which allow the precise quantification of the atherosclerotic burden of coronary arteries. The hemodynamic relevance of a given coronary stenosis can be assessed using stress or resting indexes: fractional flow reserve and instantaneous wave-free ratio are both coronary flow surrogates, used to guide percutaneous coronary interventions. This review summarizes the current state-of-the-art of invasive diagnostic methods during heart catheterization and highlights the potential role that an integration of anatomical and functional information enables. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 4. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 25 November 2020.
All research outputs
#7,359,319
of 25,382,440 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Nuclear Cardiology
#502
of 2,044 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#107,903
of 324,143 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Nuclear Cardiology
#6
of 41 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,382,440 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 69th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,044 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.1. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 74% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 324,143 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 65% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 41 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 85% of its contemporaries.
