In the present work we compare CDS observations of active region loops and predictions from a steady-state theoretical model developed assuming different functional forms of steady-state loop heating. The present work shows that in no case agreement with observations is achieved, that filamentation is present, and that despite its limitation, CDS is a precious tool for loop physics.
