Summary

This study tests a new ultrasound-based method called Ultrasonic Flow Ratio (UFR) to see if it can accurately identify significant blockages in heart arteries. Researchers will compare UFR results to the standard fractional flow reserve (FFR) test in 112 adults with suspected heart disease. The goal is to improve diagnosis without needing extra invasive procedures.
