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