Propagation-based phase-contrast synchrotron imaging of aortic dissection in mice : from individual elastic lamella to 3D analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In order to show the advantage and potential of propagation-based phase-contrast synchrotron imaging in vascular pathology research, we analyzed aortic medial ruptures in BAPN/AngII-infused mice, a mouse model for aortic dissection. Ascending and thoraco-

Effects of aortic root motion on wall stress in the Marfan aorta before and after personalised aortic root support (PEARS) surgery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Aortic root motion was previously identified as a risk factor for aortic dissection due to increased longitudinal stresses in the ascending aorta. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of aortic root motion on wall stress and strain in the

Is it important to assess the ascending aorta after tetralogy of Fallot repair?

open access: yesRevista Portuguesa de Cardiologia, 2018
Introduction and Objectives: Aortic dilatation can develop late after tetralogy of Fallot repair. Its extension beyond the aortic root is not clearly understood.
