Cardiovascular aging: Insights from local and regional measures of aortic stiffness using magnetic resonance imaging
Aortic stiffness is now established as an independent marker of cardiovascular aging and cardiovascular risk. However, the specific role of the proximal aorta, specifically the ascending aorta, remains understudied. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), a non-invasive technique has recently been propose...
