Stiffening and ventricular–arterial interaction in the ascending aorta using MRI: ageing effects in healthy humans

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of age and sex on (n)PWV and (n)dI in the ascending aorta of healthy humans. BACKGROUND: Local pulse wave velocity ((n)PWV) and wave intensity ((n)dI) in the human ascending aorta have not been studied adequately, because of the need fo...
