Özet

Objective: A non-invasive echocardiographic technique, coronary flow velocity reserve (CFR), could be used in the detection of coronary microvascular function. Our aim was to evaluate non-invasively micro-vascular circulation and endothelial function of epicardial coronary arteries in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD).
