Fig 3 Infrarenal (IR) flow waveforms, spinal cord injury (SCI) vs control. Phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging data were acquired for each subject at an IR slice plane perpendicular to the aorta and processed to compare the flow waveform over one cardiac cycle.

Fig 5 Infrarenal (IR) flow and pressure waveforms, spinal cord injury (SCI) vs control. Flow and pressure waveforms at the level of the infrarenal aorta were calculated from one-dimensional simulations.
