Investigating heartbeat-related in-plane motion and stress levels induced at the aortic root

Abstract Background The axial motion of aortic root (AR) due to ventricular traction was previously suggested to contribute to ascending aorta (AA) dissection by increasing its longitudinal stress, but AR in-plane motion effects on stresses have never been studied. The objective is to investigate th...
