Keywords: Vessels, Blood vessels, Neurovascular ComplianceNeurovascular compliance (NVC) is a vascular property involving the intracranial vascular arterial tree expressed as the arterial blood volume in response to a transient systolic blood pressure increase. NVC attracted attention due to its association with neurovascular diseases. We computed the NVC at the common carotid arteries with cine phase-contrast MR. This measure was shown to be significantly correlated with the quantification of the actual NVC in N=17 subjects (r= 0.84; p= 0.00002). Aortic pulse wave velocity, marker of aortic stiffness, was not found to be correlated with any of the two NVC computations.
