Strength Tracking From Wall Tichness Over Aortic Biomechanics (STORM)

Italy40 participantsStarted 2025-10-25

Plain-language summary

The aim of the study is to analyse the resected portion of aneurysmatic ascending aorta in order to assess its strength to rupture, standardise the various measurements performed within the lab and try to correlate these qualitative results with quantitative results (regarding aortic diameter, valve morphology and aortic wall thickness).
