The aim of this work was to generate a one to one replica of the aorta of a patient with a kinking and to compare the hemodynamic parameters with the ones obtained from patient's PC-MRI and cardiac catheterization. A silicone model was built from CE-MRA data and connected to a MRI compatible pulsatile pump setup. PC-MRI and catheterization data were obtained in the phantom. Most hemodynamic parameters were similar between the patient and the phantom.
