First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is looking at 200 people who need surgery for an ascending aortic aneurysm. Researchers will use MRI scans before surgery and test the removed tissue in the lab to learn more about the aorta's strength and flexibility. The goal is to better understand when surgery is needed and improve monitoring for patients with this condition.
