On the impact of vessel wall stiffness on quantitative flow dynamics in a synthetic model of the thoracic aorta Open
Aortic wall stiffening is a predictive marker for morbidity in hypertensive patients. Arterial pulse wave velocity (PWV) correlates with the level of stiffness and can be derived using non-invasive 4D-flow magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).…
