Local versus global aortic pulse wave velocity in early atherosclerosis: An animal study in ApoE(-/-)-mice using ultrahigh field MRI

Increased aortic stiffness is known to be associated with atherosclerosis and has a predictive value for cardiovascular events. This study aims to investigate the local distribution of early arterial stiffening due to initial atherosclerotic lesions. Therefore, global and local pulse wave velocity (...
