| Abstract | Coronary artery disease is the primary cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Therefore, detailed assessment of lesions in the coronary vasculature is critical in current clinical practice. Fractional flow reserve (FFR) has been proven as an efficient method for assessing the hemodynamic severity of a coronary stenosis. However, functional assessment of a coronary segment with multiple stenoses (> 2) remains complex for guiding the strategy of percutaneous coronary intervention due to the hemodynamic interplay between adjacent stenoses. In this work, we created four 3-dimensional (3D) arterial models that derive from a healthy patient-specific right coronary artery segment. The initial healthy model was reconstructed using fusion of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and biplane angiographic patient data. The healthy 3D model presented a measured FFR value of 0.96 (pressure-wire) and a simulated FFR value of 0.98. We then created diseased models with two artificial sequential stenoses of 90% lumen area reduction or with the proximal and distal stenosis separately. We calculated the FFR value for each case: 0.65 for the case with the two stenoses, 0.73 for the case with the distal stenosis and 0.90 for the case with the proximal stenosis. This leads to the conclusion that although both stenoses had the same degree of lumen area stenosis, there was a large difference in hemodynamic severity, thereby indicating that angiographic lumen assessment by itself is often not adequate for accurate assessment of coronary lesions. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
