Normal regional pulse wave velocity predicts absence of aortic luminal growth in patients with Marfan syndrome: a comprehensive MRI-study

By using a comprehensive MRI-approach in patients with Marfan syndrome, increased regional pulse wave velocity in the ascending aorta can predict in 42% of the cases aortic luminal growth in the ascending aorta, while normal PWV can predict in 89% absence of luminal growth.
