Abstract:
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) can be used to analyze blood flow and to predict hemodynamic outcomes after interventions for coarctation of the aorta and other cardiovascular diseases. We report the first use of cardiac 3-dimensional rotational angiography for CFD and show not only feasibility but also validation of its hemodynamic computations with catheter-based measurements in three patients.
