胸主动脉疾病导致显著的发病率和死亡率,并可能导致潜在的灾难性后果。传统的数字减影血管造影术(DSA)多年来一直是成像的黄金标准;然而,这与不良反应有关,并且仅提供有关血管形态的有限信息。DSA主要用作创伤情况下的一线检查。近年来还使用了其他一些技术,包括CT和MRI。本文主要关注后者。
Diseases of the thoracic aorta cause significant morbidity and mortality and can result in potentially catastrophic consequences. Conventional digital subtraction angiography (DSA) has been the gold standard for imaging for many years; however, this is associated with adverse effects and provides only limited information about vessel morphology. DSA is used primarily as a first-line investigation in the setting of trauma. Several other techniques also have been used in recent years, including CT and MRI. This article focuses primarily on the latter.
