Abstract
Aortic dilation in bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) might extend to the proximal arch. Arch flow dynamics and their relationship with this segment dilation are still unexplored. Using 4D-flow cardiovascular magnetic resonance, we analysed flow dynamics in the arch for each BAV morphotype and their association with this segment dilation.
