Cardiac catheterization is routinely used as a diagnostic tool in single ventricle patients with superior cavopulmonary connection. This physiology presents inherent challenges in applying the Fick principle to estimate flow. We sought to quantitatively define the error in oximetry-derived flow parameters using phase-contrast cardiac MRI (CMR) as a reference.
