Peak-systolic axial and circumferential WSS maps in RL- and RN-BAV. RL-BAV show maximum axial WSS in the right to right-anterior wall and lower values of circumferential WSS at all levels. In RN-, maximum axial WSS extends from the right-posterior wall proximally to right-anterior wall at mid and distal ascending aorta, with a higher distal circumferential WSS. Prox: proximal, Dist: distal, WSS: wall shear stress, other abbreviations as in Fig. 3
