Fractional Flow Reserve derived from computed tomography(FFRCT) is a novel method for determining the physiologic significance of coronary artery disease (CAD), which will help physicians in clinical decision-making and decrease the medical cost, but its ability to identify patients with ischemia has not been adequately examined to date.~Available data from registered clinical trials has testified the diagnostic performance of FFRCT, but the diagnostic accuracy among them are not consistent.~Thus, the investigators designed a collaborative individual patient-data pooled-analysis aimed to assess the diagnostic accuracy of FFRCT and find the possible cause for inconsistency
