The results suggest that the virtual stenting method used in this study is capable of predicting FD length with a clinically sufficient accuracy in advance and could therefore be a helpful tool in intervention planning. Imaging data of high quality are mandatory, while processing and manipulation of the FD during the intervention may impact the accuracy.
