The rationale for use of intracoronary physiology assessment and imaging arises from the limitations of coronary angiography in determining the severity of coronary stenoses. The visual assessment of percent diameter reduction has significant inter-observer variability even among experienced interventional cardiologists. Invasive imaging modalities provide better understanding of the process, which can be related to restenosis and stent thrombosis, underlining the importance of an invasive assessment of coronary artery disease to choose the best strategy to adopt.
