Voges, 2012 [92] | 3 T; cross sectional cine GRE at 4 levels of the thoracic aorta to calculate distensibility; phase contrast CMR to calculate PWV for the distance between the sinotubular junction and the proximal descending aorta, transit time calculated from the midpoint of the systolic up-slope on the flow versus time curve | 30:41 | 2–28 |
