Abstract

Coronary flow reserve was evaluated using transthoracic Doppler echocardiography before and after 3 months of fluvastatin therapy in patients with hypercholesterolemia. Coronary flow reserve increased significantly after lipid-lowering therapy, and coronary microcirculation was improved in patients with hypercholesterolemia.
