  		Figure 1 Univariate regression analysis between systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, heart rate, age, baseline average peak velocity (bAPV), hyperemic average peak velocity (hAPV), body mass index (BMI) and coronary flow velocity reserve (CFVR). Values are plotted against log10-transformed CFVR values. Results are shown for the left anterior descending artery (LAD).

  		Figure 2 Comparison of standard deviation as a measure of variability of coronary flow velocity reserve (CFVR) and corrected coronary flow velocity reserve (CFVRcorr). The figure indicates that the standard deviation of the new parameter ‘CFVRcorr’ is significantly lower than the standard deviation of traditional CFVR. LAD = left anterior descending; LCX = left circumflex artery; RCA = right coronary artery.
