Quantification of hemodynamics in abdominal aortic aneurysms during rest and exercise using magnetic resonance imaging and computational fluid dynamics
Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) affect 5–7% of older Americans. We hypothesize that
exercise may slow AAA growth by decreasing inflammatory burden, peripheral resistance …
