Abstract 12518: Bicuspid Aortic Valve Disease Increases Viscous Energy Loss, Circumferential Wall Shear Stress, and Pressure Drop in the Ascending Aorta

Introduction: We use 4D-Flow MRI to investigate the effects of bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) disease on downstream pressure drop (PD), wall shear stress (WSS), and viscous energy loss (EL) in the asc...
