## Abstract Pulse‐wave velocity is an index of arterial stiffness, which is a strong indicator of cardiovascular risk. We present a high‐speed technique that generates time‐resolved complex difference signal intensity simultaneously in the ascending and descending aorta from velocity‐encoded projec

## Abstract ## Purpose To investigate the feasibility of assessing, noninvasively, aortic pulse pressure (APP) and pulse wave velocity (PWV) in the ascending aorta of young adults by means of velocity‐encoded magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. ## Materials and Methods In a series of 11 healthy vol
## Abstract ## Purpose To validate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) assessment of aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV~MRI~) with PWV determined from invasive intra‐aortic pressure measurements (PWV~INV~) and to test the reproducibility of the measurement by MRI. ## Materials and Methods PWV~MRI~ was
