Aortic length measurements for pulse wave velocity calculation: manual 2D vs automated 3D centreline extraction

Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is a biomarker for the intrinsic stiffness of the aortic wall, and has been shown to be predictive for cardiovascular events. It can be assessed using cardiovascular magnetic resonanc...
