An FFR value of 0.75 can distinguish patients with normal and abnormal noninvasive stress testing in case of normal left ventricular function. The present study aimed at investigating the value of FFR in patients with a prior myocardial infarction.\n          <\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>\n            <jats:bold>\n              <jats:italic>\n                <jats:bold>\n                  <jats:italic>Methods and Results<\/jats:italic>\n                <\/jats:bold>\n                \u2014\n              <\/jats:italic>\n            <\/jats:bold>\n            In 57 patients who had sustained a myocardial infarction \u22656 days earlier, myocardial perfusion single photon emission scintigraphy (SPECT) imaging and FFR were obtained before and after angioplasty. The sensitivity and specificity of the 0.75 value of FFR to detect flow maldistribution at SPECT imaging were 82% and 87%. The concordance between the FFR and SPECT imaging was 85% (\n            <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n            &lt;0.001). When only truly positive and truly negative SPECT imaging were considered, the corresponding values were 87%, 100%, and 94% (\n            <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n            &lt;0.001). Patients with positive SPECT imaging before angioplasty had a significantly lower FFR than patients with negative SPECT imaging (0.52\u00b10.18 versus 0.67\u00b10.16,\n            <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n            =0.0079) but a significantly higher left ventricular ejection fraction (63\u00b110% versus 52\u00b110%,\n            <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n            =0.0009) despite a similar degree of diameter stenosis (67\u00b113% versus 68\u00b116%,\n            <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n            =NS).
