Studies from human subjects with translesional pressure gradients indicate that an aortic-renal pressure gradient of 10% to 20% is necessary to detect renin release. Mean aortic pressure (Pd); mean pressure distal to the renal artery stenosis (Pa). (From De Bruyne B, Manoharan G, Pijls NHJ, et al. Assessment of renal artery stenosis severity by pressure gradient measurements. J Am Coll Cardiol. 2006; 48:1851–1855)
