Comparison of an oscillometric method with cardiac magnetic resonance for the analysis of aortic pulse wave velocity.

Comparison of an oscillometric method with cardiac magnetic resonance for the analysis of aortic pulse wave velocity.

OBJECTIVES:Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is the proposed gold-standard for the assessment of aortic elastic properties. The aim of this study was to compare aortic PWV determined by a recently developed oscillometric device with cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR). METHODS:PWV was assessed in 40 vo...
