Three-Dimensional Imaging of the Aortic Vessel Wall Using an Elastin-Specific Magnetic Resonance Contrast Agent

OBJECTIVEThe aim of this study was to demonstrate the feasibility of high-resolution 3-dimensional aortic vessel wall imaging using a novel elastin-specific magnetic resonance contrast agent (ESMA) in a large animal model. MATERIALS AND METHODSThe thoracic aortic vessel wall of 6 Landrace pigs was i...
