Thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection: new endoscopic mode for three-dimensional CT display of aorta

Radiology
F KimuraT Mochizuki

Abstract

Three-dimensional (3D) endoscopic-mode software was used at helical computed tomography (CT) to evaluate distal aortic arch aneurysms (n = 12) and aortic dissections (n = 10); images were compared with two-dimensional (2D) axial source images. In distal aortic arch aneurysms, the 3D endoscopic mode depicted the relationship of the arterial orifices and the aneurysm, which is difficult to evaluate with 2D axial images alone. In aortic dissections, however, the 3D endoscopic mode did not provide additional information to that provided on the 2D axial source images.

Aortic Aneurysm

An aortic aneurysm is the weakening and bulging of the blood vessel wall in the aorta. This causes dilatation of the aorta, which is usually asymptomatic but carries the risk of rupture and hemorrhage. Find the latest research on aortic aneurysms here.

Cardiac Aneurysm

Aneurysm refers to a bulge of the wall or lining of a vessel commonly occurring in the blood vessels at the base of the septum or within the aorta. In the heart, it usually arises from a patch of weakened tissue in a ventricular wall, which swells into a bubble filled with blood. Discover the latest research on cardiac aneurysm here.

Aneurysm

Aneurysms are outward distensions or bulges that occurs in a weakened wall of blood vessels. Discover the latest research on aneurysms here.
