Key result
Fourier velocity encoded M-mode using the early systolic fit algorithm provided accurate (6.8 +/- 0.4 m/s) and repeatable (delta = 0.096) pulse wave velocity measurements compared to 2D-PC.
Why the study?
Does Fourier velocity encoded (FVE) M-mode provide more accurate and repeatable pulse wave velocity measurements than 2D phase contrast MRI in the descending aorta?
Observational (n=20)
Does Fourier velocity encoded (FVE) M-mode provide more accurate and repeatable pulse wave velocity measurements than 2D phase contrast MRI in the descending aorta?
FVE M-mode with the early systolic fit algorithm allows rapid, accurate, and repeatable central pulse wave velocity evaluation compared to 2D phase contrast MRI.

May facilitate rapid PWV assessment during routine MRI; leaves open larger validation and outcome studies.
Taviani et al. (2010) conducted an observational in Healthy volunteers (n=20). Fourier velocity encoded (FVE) M-mode vs. Two-dimensional (2D) phase contrast (2D-PC) was evaluated on Accuracy and repeatability of pulse wave velocity (PWV) measurement. Fourier velocity encoded M-mode using the early systolic fit algorithm provided accurate (6.8 +/- 0.4 m/s) and repeatable (delta = 0.096) pulse wave velocity measurements compared to 2D-PC.
