Quantitative Stent Graft Motion in ECG Gated CT by Image Registration and Segmentation: In  Vitro Validation and Preliminary Clinical Results.

CONCLUSIONS: A novel methodology to quantify and visualise stent graft motion in multiphasic ECG gated CT has been validated in vitro and tested in vivo. This methodology enables further exploration of in situ motion of different stent grafts and branch stents and their interaction with native vessels.
