<i>In vivo</i> aortic elasticity measurement using electrocardiogram-gated computed tomography: validation with <i>ex vivo</i> loading test
EGCT-based measurement is a feasible, reliable method for assessing aortic mechanical properties noninvasively. Although further studies are needed to refine predictive accuracy, this approach may enhance risk stratification for aortic catastrophes in future clinical practice.
