On the Relative Impact of Intraluminal Thrombus Heterogeneity on Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Mechanics
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Intraluminal thrombus (ILT) is present in the majority of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) of a size warranting consideration for surgical or endovascular intervention. The rupture risk of AAAs is thought to be related to ...
In Vivo Quantification of Ascending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm Wall Stretch Using MRI: Relationship to Repair Threshold Diameter and Ex Vivo Wall Failure Behavior
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Ascending thoracic aortic aneurysms (aTAAs) can lead to life-threatening dissection and rupture. Recent studies have highlighted aTAA mechanical properties as relevant factors associated with progression. The aim of this ...
