Measurement of pulse wave velocity using magnetic resonance imaging

Arterial stiffness has a strong relationship with cardiovascular disease. Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is increasingly used as a measure of arterial stiffness. The calculation of PWV requires accurate measurement of blood flow velocity and aortic length. Using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), we are a...
