Two-dimensional echocardiographic and strain values of the proximal thoracic aorta in a normal sub-Saharan African population

Two-dimensional echocardiographic and strain values of the proximal thoracic aorta in a normal sub-Saharan African population

Abstract Background There is limited data regarding reference ranges for aortic dimensions in African populations. This study aims to establish normal reference ranges for echocardiographic dimensions and circumferential strain (CS) of the proximal thoracic aorta in a healthy sub-Saharan African pop...
