(a) Representative local anatomy at the oblique cross-section of the DAA. [A – aorta, V – vertebra, L – lung, LPA – left pulmonary artery, LV – left ventricle].(b-d) Plots of mean regional NCS (±S.D.) at local systole and corresponding strain maps of 5 DAAs from subjects < 50 years and 4 DAAs from subjects > 50 years-old. White arrow identifies the location of the aorto-vertebral interface (AVI)
