Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, we analyzed distribution of blood flow velocity, pressure and shear stress in false lumen in type B aortic dissection using 4D flow MRI analysis software.And we are analyzing factor of expansion or re-expansion after entry closure. Currently about 20 cases of imaging are taken and factor analysis is ongoing.
