HeartFlow FFRct is coronary physiologic simulation software developed for the clinical quantitative and qualitative analysis of CT DICOM data. It is a tool for the analysis of CT DICOM-compliant cardiac images and data, to assess the anatomy and function of the coronary arteries. The software displays the anatomy combined with functional information using graphics and text, including computed and derived quantities of blood flow, pressure and velocity, to aid the clinician in the assessment of coronary artery disease. FFRct is independent of imaging equipment, imaging protocols and equipment vendors; the clinical validation report includes identification of vendors and equipment used in the clinical validation of the product. This data is summarized in the product labeling, and can be found in the Clinical User Instructions for Use. HeartFlow FFRct analyses are performed on previously physician-acquired image data and are unrelated to acquisition equipment and clinical workstations.
An application software program intended to aid assessment of vascular stenosis and/or endovascular interventions, by producing a three-dimensional (3-D) cardiovascular model which has features of predicted blood flow data and/or endovascular device deployments. It typically uses computed tomography (CT) images and may be intended as an alternative to invasive techniques (i.e., invasive blood pressure, invasive fractional flow reserve, angiography); it is not intended to store patient records.
