Brief Summary:
Rationale:
Aortic diameter is currently used as a gold standard in international guidelines for prediction of aorta pathology (aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection). However, aortic diameter has proven to be insufficiently accurate for making decisions about well-timed preventive interventions. The LANDMARC study will take place in line with the FIBAA-bank ('Correlatie tussen cardiovasculaire FIBroseringsgraad en Aorta elongatie, dilatatie en Atria dilatatie (FIBAA-bank): een biobank \& databank onderzoek met focus op aorta en atria' (METC-number 2022-3164)), and aims to reveal the undiscovered relationship between WSS (wall shear stress) values and aortic strain. In combination with data from the FIBAA-bank, the LANDMARC study will provide more accurate information for future risk stratification models for cardiovascular pathology (with focus on aortic disease).
Objectives:
Primary objective: indication of the association between WSS (peak WSS and WSS gradient) (through 4D-flow MR and CT) and aortic strain.
Secondary objective: indication of the association between (hemo)dynamic processes within the body (aortic elongation/aortic strain) and (patho-)physiological changes (degree of cardiovascular tissue fibrosis).
