Figure 2
Three-dimensional maps of the haemodynamic parameters analysed in this study. (A) The columns represent each analysed parameter with the same order as TableĀ 1. In the first row, we show a representative TGA patient and in the second row a representative control. The 3D maps of figure (B) represent the curvature calculated for each case. Differences between the showed TGA patient and control in the root and ascending aorta are visible for several parameters: backward velocity, WSS, WSS axial, WSS circumferential, vorticity, helicity density, velocity angle, regurgitation fraction, and eccentricity. Also, the aortic arch curvature was different between the TGA patient and control.
