Aortic backward flow indices estimated from phase-contrast cardiovascular magnetic resonance data


Aims : To estimate parameters related to BF and FF in the AA in healthy subjects using 2D PC-CMR data and evaluate their relationships with age.
Aortic BF significantly increased in terms of volume and flow rate peak with age.
aortic BF could be an early markers of subclinical impairment of circulatory efficiency.
