This course highlights how foundational discoveries in coronary physiology shape modern clinical practice. We revisit key physiological concepts, tracing their evolution into contemporary diagnostics and interventions. The core principle: "Treat the patient, not the indices." A holistic approach ensures that treatments target the root cause of ischemia rather than relying solely on measurements. Key Question: "If You Can’t Measure It, Should You Treat It?"
