Summary

The overall goal of this project is to compare the absolute quantification of myocardial perfusion done by using CT myocardial perfusion imaging (CT-MPI) and the coronary flow measured by using CT Fractional Flow Reserve analysis (CT-FFR) to the gold standard represented by PET myocardial perfusion imaging (PET-MPI).
