Stiffness and Elasticity of Aorta Assessed Using Computed Tomography Angiography as a Marker of Cardiovascular Health—A Cross-Sectional Study

Stiffness and Elasticity of Aorta Assessed Using Computed Tomography Angiography as a Marker of Cardiovascular Health—A Cross-Sectional Study

Cardiovascular (CV) health can be measured using the American Health Association’s Life’s Simple 7 scale (ALS7). Aortic stiffness (AoS) and elasticity (AoE) can be assessed using various methods, e.g., computed tomography (CT). To measure AoE, we use aortic strain and distensibility (AoD). The aim o...
