Assessing changes in aortic motion and hemodynamics after valve-sparing aortic root surgery in Marfan syndrome using 4D bSSFP and 4D flow CMR

Abstract
En 中文
Aortic root surgery in patients with Marfan syndrome (MFS) has significantly improved survival, allowing time for distal aortic complications such as type B aortic dissection (TBAD) to emerge. The implantation of a non-compliant synthetic graft may alter aortic biomechanics and hemodynamics, potentially contributing to these late complications. This proof-of-concept study aimed to assess changes in aortic motion and flow characteristics following aortic root surgery using advanced cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) techniques.
