Determination of Aortic Elasticity from MR- and CT- Images Using an Automatic Active Contour Model
… applications for clinical trials predicting arterial diseases before they become morphologically apparent. The elasticity is usually quantified by compliance measurements. Therefore, the relative temporal change in vessel cross-sectional area through the cardiac cycle or alternatively, the …

MECHANICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF PORCINE AORTA USING MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING
… of the most fatal degenerative cardiovascular diseases: abdominal aortic aneurysm(AAA). The approach presented in this work to achieve this goal couples Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) with Finite Element (FE) analysis to define a model of aortic mechanical behaviour. In particular, the aortic …
