    Area of Science:

    • Medical Imaging
    • Vascular Surgery
    • Diagnostic Radiology

    Background:

    • Aortic aneurysms pose significant health risks.
    • Accurate diagnosis and size measurement are crucial for effective treatment planning.
    • Noninvasive imaging modalities are preferred for patient safety and diagnostic efficiency.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the diagnostic value of computerized tomography (CT) for aortic aneurysms.
    • To compare the accuracy of CT measurements with postoperative data.
    • To determine the utility of CT as a primary preoperative investigation.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of 137 cases diagnosed with aortic aneurysm using computerized tomography.
    • Comparison of CT-derived aneurysm dimensions with postoperative findings.
    • Analysis of CT's accuracy in size measurement and overall diagnostic performance.

    Main Results:

    • Computerized tomography demonstrated high accuracy in diagnosing aortic aneurysms.
    • CT measurements of aneurysm size showed excellent correlation with postoperative data.
    • The noninvasive nature of CT provides significant advantages over other diagnostic methods.

    Conclusions:

    • Computerized tomography is a highly valuable diagnostic method for aortic aneurysms.
    • CT offers accurate aneurysm size assessment, crucial for surgical planning.
    • Preoperative investigation can often be limited to CT alone, simplifying the diagnostic process.
