This is a prospective, multi-center trial conducted at up to 20 US, Canadian, European and
Asian centers designed to determine the diagnostic performance of CT-FLOW (the
investigational technology) by coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) for
non-invasive assessment of the hemodynamic significance of coronary lesions, as compared to
direct measurement of fractional flow reserve (FFR) during cardiac catheterization as a
reference standard.

285 patient, prospective, multi-center trial conducted at up to 20 US, Canadian, European
and Asian centers designed to determine the diagnostic performance of CT-FLOW (the

non-invasive assessment of the hemodynamic significance of coronary lesions, as compared to
direct measurement of fractional flow reserve (FFR) during cardiac catheterization as a
reference standard
