Heart-to-Brachium Pulse Wave Velocity as a Measure of Proximal Aortic Stiffness: MRI and Longitudinal Studies

BACKGROUND: Stiffening of the proximal aorta is associated with heightened cardiovascular disease risks but can be quantified by limited methodologies (e.g., magnetic resonance imaging [MRI]). As an initial step to evaluate the emerging technique to assess proximal aortic stiffness via pulse wave ve...
