Abstract: OBJECTIVE Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital heart defect. Ascending aorta dilatation is related to BAV- and hypertension (HTN)-associated aortopathy. The aim of this study was to investigate aortic elasticity, as well… read more here.

Abstract: Purpose: Aortic maximal rate of systolic distention (MRSD) is a prognosis factor of ascending aorta dilatation with magnetic resonance imaging. Its calculation requires precise continuous tracking of the aortic diameter over the cardiac cycle, which… read more here.
