Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair (TEVAR) is often
associated with graft related complications such as
endoleaks, kinking, infolding, and stentgraft migration,
disconformability and especially disattachment
phenomena. It is the objective of this study to
investigate the potential of MRI for assessing the
impact of the stents on blood flow and vessel
compliance.
