May offer noninvasive CoA pressure gradients; leaves open larger validation before clinical use.
Does LBM-based computational hemodynamics using MRI accurately measure pressure gradients compared to invasive catheterization in patients with aortic coarctation?
LBM-based computational hemodynamics using MRI provides noninvasive pressure gradient measurements that correlate well with invasive catheterization in patients with aortic coarctation.
