API Reference

Get Thoracic Aorta Dimensions

Retrieves normal values of descending thoracic aortic diameter, area, and wall thickness for young men and women aged 25–35 years.

Measurements were obtained on axial reformatted images of a fat-suppressed 3‑dimensional‑T1‑black blood VISTA (volume isotropic turbo spin echo acquisition) sequence. The API returns median values along with 10th and 90th percentiles.
