Background: This study aimed to investigate the diagnostic value of comprehensive on-site coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) using stenosis and plaque measures and subtended myocardial mass (V-sub) for fractional flow reserve (FFR) defined hemodynamically obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). Additionally, the incremental diagnostic value of off-site CT-derived FFR (FFRCT) was assessed.Methods: Prospectively enrolled patients underwent CCTA followed by invasive FFR interrogation of all major coronary arteries. Vessels with >= 30% stenosis were included for analysis. On-site CCTA assessment included qualitative and quantitative stenosis (visual grading and minimal lumen area, MLA) and plaque measures (characteristics and volumes), and V-sub. Diagnostic value of comprehensive on-site CCTA assessment was tested by comparing area under the curves (AUC). In vessels with available FFRCT, the incremental value of off-site FFRCT was tested.Results: In 236 vessels (132 patients), MLA, positive remodeling, non-calcified plaque volume, and V-sub were independent on-site CCTA predictors for hemodynamically obstructive CAD (p < 0.05 for all). V-sub/MLA(2) outperformed all these on-site CCTA parameters (AUC = 0.85) and V-sub was incremental to all other CCTA predictors (p = 0.02). In subgroup analysis (n = 194 vessels), diagnostic performance of FFRCT and V-sub/MLA(2) was similar (AUC 0.89 and 0.85 respectively, p = 0.25). Furthermore, diagnostic performance significantly albeit minimally increased when FFRCT was added to on-site CCTA assessment (AAUC = 0.03, p = 0.02).Conclusions: In comprehensive on-site CCTA assessment, V-sub/MLA(2) demonstrated greatest diagnostic value for hemodynamically obstructive CAD and V-sub was incremental to all evaluated CCTA indices. Additionally, adding FFRCT only minimally increased diagnostic performance, demonstrating that on-site CCTA assessment is a reasonable alternative to FFRCT.
