Detailed Measurement of Wall Strain with 3D Speckle Tracking in the Aortic Root: A Case of Bionic Support for Clinical Decision Making

Detailed Measurement of Wall Strain with 3D Speckle Tracking in the Aortic Root: A Case of Bionic Support for Clinical Decision Making

Abstract Three-dimensional (3D) wall motion tracking (WMT) based on ultrasound imaging enables estimation of aortic wall motion and deformation. It provides insights into changes in vascular compliance and vessel wall properties essential for understanding the pathogenesis and progression of aortic...
