Abstract

New developments in the treatment of coronary artery disease have increased the demand for a more detailed, accurate, and comprehensive evaluation of coronary artery functional anatomy. Though there are a multitude of modalities available for the study of coronary anatomy, each has significant limitations, and thus, do not permit a complete functional assessment of coronary anatomy. To overcome these drawbacks, fusion of different imaging modalities has been proposed. The aim of this chapter is to describe the most prevalent and emerging of these fused imaging modalities and present their current and potential applications, highlighting their impact in the clinical and research arena.
