Abstract
This paper describes an experimental system for validation of an approach to non-invasive determination of pressure gradients in stenotic flows as encountered in peripheral arterial disease. Pressure gradient across a Gaussian-shaped 87% area stenosis phantom was estimated by solving the pressure Poisson equation (PPE) for a steady flow mimicking the blood flow through the human iliac artery. The velocity field needed to solve the pressure equation was obtained using Phase-Contrast MRI (PC-MRI) and Stereoscopic Particle Image Velocimetry (SPIV). Steady flow rate of 46.9 ml/s was used, which corresponds to a Reynolds number of 188 and 595 at the inlet and stenosis throat, respectively (in the range of mean Reynolds number encountered, in-vivo). Results of PC-MRI and SPIV have been compared to the pressures measured directly by a pressure catheter transducer. The reconstructed pressure drop along the centerline overestimates the catheter reference pressure drop by 8.5% and 10.5% for PC-MRI and SPIV methods, respectively.
