Table 3. Relationship between variations of atherothrombotic volume and indices of coronary physiology.

Correlation are expresses by rho Spearman’s coefficient. p< 0.05 is considered statistically significant. Cells containing statistical significant correlations are highlighted in red. (∆ATV: delta athero-thrombotic volume; ∆CFR ; ATV: athero-thrombotic colume; CFR: coronary flow reserve; FFR: fractional flow reserve; IMR: index of microcirculatory resistance; PFATV: prolapsed+floating atherothrombotic volume; ∆CFR ; delta CFR; ∆FFR : delta FFR; ∆IMR: delta IMR)
