Aortic Wall Thickness as a Surrogate for Subclinical Atherosclerosis in Familial and Nonfamilial Hypercholesterolemia: Quantitative 3D Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study and Interrelations with Computed Tomography Calcium Scores, and Carotid Ultrasonography

We aimed to compare the extent of subclinical atherosclerosis in the ascending and descending aortas by measuring wall area and thickness using 3D cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (aAWAI and dAWAI) in patients with asymptomatic familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) and nonfamilial hypercholest...
