Abstract:
The authors report a patient with silent dissecting aortic aneurysm in whom three-dimensional spiral computed tomography (CT) angiography (3D-CTA) provided important imaging data. Images obtained by 3D-CTA were compared with the results of both conventional angiography and CT. They conclude that 3D-CTA was a powerful diagnostic modality for this patient, in addition to conventional CT and angiography.
