Popis: BACKGROUND: Non-invasive fractional flow reserve (FFR(CT)) derived from coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) permits hemodynamic evaluation of coronary stenosis and may improve efficiency of assessment in stable chest pain patients. We determined feasibility of FFR(CT) in the population of acute chest pain patients and assessed the relationship of FFR(CT) with outcomes of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and revascularization and with plaque characteristics. METHODS: We included 68 patients (mean age 55.8 ± 8.4 years, 71% men) from the ROMICAT II trial who had ≥50% stenosis on coronary CTA or underwent additional non-invasive stress test. We evaluated coronary stenosis and high-risk plaque on coronary CTA. FFR(CT) was measured in a core laboratory. RESULTS: We found correlation between anatomic severity of stenosis and FFR(CT) ≤0.80 vs. FFR(CT) >0.80 (severe stenosis 84.8% vs. 15.2%; moderate stenosis 33.3% vs. 66.7%; mild stenosis 33.3% vs. 66.7% patients). Patients with severe stenosis had lower FFR(CT) values (median 0.64, 25(th)-75(th) percentile 0.50–0.75) as compared to patients with moderate (median 0.84, 25(th)-75(th) percentile, p
