“…In contrast, MR can be more objective than DUS and more useful in evaluation of vessel wall motion during the cardiac cycle [23], but its availability is limited, the acquisition of several pulse sequences increases the scan time, and monitoring of unstable patients can be difficult. Finally, the spatial resolution of MRI is currently inferior to that of CTA [11,22]. Therefore, although it causes radiation exposure, CTA is still the preferred method to screen aortic pathologies.…”
