patients with angina and unobstructed coronary arteries. Together with his research team, Dr. Ong
has published several studies on the usefulness of acetylcholine provocation testing for the diagnosis
of coronary vasomotor disorders in various clinical settings. Together with the wire-based
assessment of coronary flow reserve “interventional diagnostic procedures” have been established

diagnostic assessments resulting in new endotypes of disease and their impact for targeted
pharmacotherapy.
