Figure 3

Comparison of 3D visualizations of helices in a healthy volunteer (male, 31 years old) at 1.5 T (A) and 3 T (B) HVmax 10.3 ml (A) vs. 11.0 ml (B); HVacc 16.9 ml (A) vs. 17.4 ml (B) (C) 3D visualizations of systolic helical and vortical flow in the ascending aorta of a patient with BAV (45 years old male) at 1.5 T. A large formation of vortical flow is located behind the opened aortic valve at the site of the aortic sinus (arrow). A formation of helical flow evolves through the ascending aorta (arrow head).
