Aortic root

The aortic root is the start of the aorta as it leaves the heart/left ventricle carrying oxygenated blood into the aortic valve, the coronary arteries and up into the ascending aorta. This term is frequently used synonymously with ascending aorta.

We develop medical devices that manage aortic dilation and minimise the risk of aortic dissection.
