From: Pressure gradient measurement in the coronary artery using phase contrast (PC)-MRI: initial patient results towards noninvasive quantification of fractional flow reserve

Figure 2

a) The mean ± std ΔP value for health controls and patients were 0.6249 ± 0.4884 mmHg and 6.3960 ± 4.4302 mmHg, respectively. The high standard deviation in the patient group is due to the range of the stenotic level among the patient group. b) Patient example (Patient A). Invasive coronary angiography (ICA) and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA). c) Patient A, six cross-sectional slices obtained from PC-MRI over the stenotic lesion at the proximal left anterior descending artery. Top row: flow compensated, bottom row: phase contrast (in the z-direction).
