Tortuosity comes with higher displacement forces in the aorta. As the descending thoracic aorta (DTA) is becoming longer and more tortuous with age, it is important to understand the influence of tortuosity on displacement forces in the DTA.

Abstract

Tortuosity comes with higher displacement forces in the aorta. As the descending thoracic aorta (DTA) is becoming longer and more tortuous with age, it is important to understand the influence of tortuosity on displacement forces in the DTA.
