title: Flow rate determination using computed tomography.
abstract: A method of measuring flow in a large vessel by using a CT scanner is described. It has been shown that this is a simple, accurate and reproducible method in an experimental model. Possible clinical applications and limitations of this method of measuring flow are briefly considered.
