a Phantom experimental setup (-left) with: variable power source (a), flow indicator (b), submersible pump (c), flow phantom in the MRI scanner (d), and the phantom geometry (-right) represented with the main diameter \(d_0\), stenotic diameter \(d_S\), and total length of L; b the mass flow rate at the inlet of the patient-specific aorta with coarctation (CoA) from MRI and the fitted spline; c the patient-specific CoA with a highlighted position of narrowing (in red), inlet, and the branching arteries: brachiocephalic trunk (BT), left common carotid artery (LCCA), Left subclavian artery (LSA), celiac trunk (CT), left renal artery (LRA), right renal artery (RRA), and the rest of abdominal aorta (AbAo)
