Background: Computed tomography coronary angiography (CTCA) image analysis enables plaque characterization and non-invasive fractional flow reserve (FFR) calculation. We analyzed various parameters derived from CTCA images and evaluated their associations with ischemia.Methods: 49 (61 lesions) patients underwent CTCA and invasive FFR. Lesions with diameter stenosis (DS) >= 50% were considered obstructive. CTCA image processing incorporating analytical and numerical methods were used to quantify anatomical parameters of lesion length (LL) and minimum lumen area (MLA); plaque characteristic parameters of plaque volume, low attenuation plaque (LAP) volume, dense calcium volume (DCV), normalized plaque volume (NP Vol), plaque burden, eccentricity index and napkin-ring (NR) sign; and hemodynamic parameters of resistance index, stenosis flow reserve (SFR) and FFRB. Ischemia was defined as FFR = 50% vs
