Pulsatile blood flow through the cavities of the heart and great vessels is time-varying and
multidirectional. Access to all regions, phases and directions of cardiovascular flows has …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has become an important tool for the clinical evaluation
of patients with cardiovascular disease. Since its introduction in the late 1980s, 2 …

Background In patients with bicuspid valve (BAV), ascending aorta (AAo) dilatation may be
caused by altered flow patterns and wall shear stress (WSS). These differences may explain …

Background—Hemodynamics may play a role contributing to the progression of bicuspid
aortic valve (BAV) aortopathy. This study measured the impact of BAV on the distribution of …

Background Wall shear stress (WSS) is a stimulus for vessel wall remodeling. Differences in
ascending aorta (AA o) hemodynamics have been reported between bicuspid aortic valve …

Background The purpose of this study was to investigate 3D flow patterns and vessel wall
parameters in patients with dilated ascending aorta, age-matched subjects, and healthy …

Background: Blood flow patterns can alter material properties of ascending thoracic aortic
aneurysms (ATAA) via vascular wall remodeling. This study examines the relationship …

Purpose To assess the accuracy and precision of a volumetric wall shear stress (WSS)
calculation method applied to cine phase contrast magnetic resonance imaging (PC‐MRI) …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques provide non-invasive and non-ionising
methods for the highly accurate anatomical depiction of the heart and vessels throughout the …

Background To assess changes in right heart flow and pulmonary artery hemodynamics in
patients with repaired Tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF) we used whole heart, four dimensional (4D) …
