Three-dimensional quantitative coronary angiography (3D-QCA) enables reconstruction of a coronary artery in 3D from two angiographic image projections. This study compared the diagnostic accuracy of 3D-QCA vs. 2-dimensional (2D) QCA in predicting physiologically significant coronary stenosis, using fractional flow reserve (FFR) as the reference standard.
