The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of a non-contrast, respiratory motion-resolved whole-heart cardiovascular magnetic resonance angiography (CMRA) technique against reference standard CTA, for the quantitative assessment of cardiovascular anatomy and monitoring of disease progression in patients with thoracic aortic dilatation.  SN - 1532-429X UR - https://doi.org/10.1186/s12968-020-00697-x DO - 10.1186/s12968-020-00697-x ID - Yacoub2021 ER -
