- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>To gain insight in the parameters that influence the success and failure of the<br /><br>proximal fixation and/or sealing of Thoraflex Hybrid device and Relay(Branch)<br /><br>stent grafts.<br /><br><br /><br>More practically, this leads to the questions of how the diameter of the<br /><br>(proximal) stent rings changes during the cardiac cycle (pulsatility), how the<br /><br>diameter changes over a period of several months (expansion) and how the grafts<br /><br>interact with the dynamics of the stented target vessels.</p><br>
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>• How does the estimated vessel compliance change during follow-up?<br /><br>• Can we observe other kinds of motion that change over time?<br /><br>• What are the differences and similarities of thoracic endograft vs. thoracic<br /><br>hybrid graft (Relay(Branch) vs. Thoraflex Hybrid) considering:<br /><br>o Expansion?<br /><br>o Pulsatility?<br /><br>o Conformability to the native vessel?</p><br>
