Evaluation of Distensibility and Stiffness of Ascending Aortic Aneurysm using Magnetic Resonance Imaging

open access: yesJournal of Nepal Medical Association, 2016
Introduction: Magnetic resonance imaging emerging as a new tool for the diagnosis and evaluation of ascending aortic aneurysm. The aim of our study is to evaluate in vivo distensibility and pulse wave velocity of the aortic wall using functional magnetic

A Giant Dissecting Aneurysm of Ascending Aorta Following Aortic Valve Replacement [PDF]

open access: yesCase Reports in Medicine, 2014
Ascending aortic dissection and aneurysm are rare but life-threatening complications after aortic valve replacement. Preoperative evaluation of risk factors such as aortic diameter, structural features of aortic wall, and associated diseases may ...

Biomechanical Evaluation of Ascending Aortic Aneurysms [PDF]

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2014
The biomechanical properties of ascending aortic aneurysms were investigated only in the last decade in a limited number of studies. Indeed, in recent years, there has been a growing interest in this field in order to identify new predictive parameters of risk of dissection, which may have clinical relevance.

Biomechanical Characterization of Ascending Aortic Aneurysms [PDF]

open access: yesBiomechanics and Modeling in Mechanobiology, 2016
Ascending thoracic aortic aneurysms (ATAAs) are a silent disease, ultimately leading to dissection or rupture of the arterial wall. There is a growing consensus that diameter information is insufficient to assess rupture risk, whereas wall stress and strength provide a more reliable estimate.
