In this issue of EuroIntervention, we offer a state-of-the-art review on optical coherence tomography-guided PCI. In original research: a simplification of the continuous intracoronary thermodilution technique; intravascular ultrasound for measuring quantitative fractional flow reserve; an investigation into the diagnostic potential of hyperaemic absolute coronary flow and absolute microvascular resistance in better understanding endotypes of angina with non-obstructive coronary arteries; and absolute coronary flow before and after TAVI. Also, there is a debate on whether quantitative flow reserve is the future; news from the EAPCI; and more...
