High heritability of ascending aortic diameter and multi-ethnic prediction of thoracic aortic disease.

2020-06-01

Abstract excerpt

Enlargement of the aorta is an important risk factor for aortic aneurysm and dissection, a leading cause of morbidity in the developed world. While Mendelian genetics account for a portion of thoracic aortic disease, the contribution of common variation is not known. Using standard techniques in computer vision, we performed automated extraction of Ascending Aortic Diameter (AsAoD) from cardiac MRI of 36,021 indiv...
