Helical flow in tortuous aortas and its relationship to turbulence: A whole-aorta 4D flow MRI study
BACKGROUND: Increased vascular tortuosity is a hallmark of ageing of the vascular system, including the aorta. However, the impact of tortuosity on aortic blood flow is unknown. We hypothesized that increased tortuosity would be associated with increased blood flow helicity and with decreased degree...
