ResumoBackground Large discrepancies exist concerning the incidence of myocardial bridging. This has been reported to be 0·5%–2·5% following coronary angiography but 15%–85% following autopsy. The purpose of the study was to use intravascular ultrasound and intracoronary Doppler to study the morphology and flow characteristics of myocardial bridging in order to find feasible parameters of this syndrome.
