Currently, no diagnostic tool is available to directly visualize the coronary microvasculature. Invasive microvascular reactivity testing is the diagnostic standard for CMD, but several non-invasive imaging techniques are being evaluated. However, evidence on reported non-invasive parameters and cut-off values is limited. Thus, we aimed to provide an overview of reported non-invasive parameters and corresponding cut-off values for CMD.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Pubmed and EMBASE databases were systematically searched for studies enrolling patients with angina pectoris without obstructed coronary arteries, investigating at least one non-invasive imaging technique to quantify CMD.

Ten cardiac magnetic resonance  studies reported MPRI and nine positron emission tomography (PET) and transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) studies reported CFR. Mean MPRI ranged from 1.47\u2009\u00b1\u20090.36 to 2.01\u2009\u00b1\u20090.41 in patients and from 1.50\u2009\u00b1\u20090.47 to 2.68\u2009\u00b1\u20090.49 in controls without CMD. Reported mean CFR in PET and TTE ranged from 1.39\u2009\u00b1\u20090.31 to 2.85\u2009\u00b1\u20091.35 and 1.69\u2009\u00b1\u20090.40 to 2.40\u2009\u00b1\u20090.40 for patients, and 2.68\u2009\u00b1\u20090.83 to 4.32\u2009\u00b1\u20091.78 and 2.65\u2009\u00b1\u20090.65 to 3.31\u2009\u00b1\u20091.10 for controls, respectively.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This systematic review summarized current evidence on reported parameters and cut-off values to diagnose CMD for various non-invasive imaging modalities.
