P9.03 REGIONAL AGE-RELATED CHANGES IN AORTIC PULSE WAVE VELOCITY AND SYSTOLIC DIAMETER MEASURED USING MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING
Aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV) is an independent predictor of cardiovascular risk. However, PWV is usually determined between the carotid and femoral sites, ignoring the proximal ascending aorta which may stiffen most with age. We tested this hypothesis by assessing regional PWV and aortic diamete...
