Abstract
Theoretical analysis was used to test the hypothesis that flow velocity measurements distal to a stenosis would result in a coronary flow velocity reserve (CFVR) that is artificially enhanced because of changes in distal arterial dimensions between resting and hyperemic flow conditions. Calculations were carried out for a mean coronary input pressure of 100 mm Hg and an opposing zero-flow pressure of 10 mm Hg. Results confirm the tested hypothesis.
