Audible Coronary Artery Stenosis [PDF]
The American Journal of Medicine, 2016 Hemodynamically significant coronary artery stenoses generate turbulent blood flow patterns that manifest as intracoronary murmurs. This study aims to evaluate the performance of modern acoustic detection of these murmurs by acoustic signals captured from patients undergoing gold standard comparative coronary angiography.We prospectively studied 156 ...
