Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the value of magnetic resonance imaging in diagnosis aortic diseases.Methods Fourty-nine patients with aortic diseases including 20 cases aneurysm,26 cases aortic dissection and 3 cases pseudoaneurysm were examinated with MRI SE and 9 cases of them underwent FFE cine.Results All cases of both groups showed the part,extent and modality of aortic disease.And mensuration the size of aneurysm.Aortic dissection of 26 cases showed aortic double lumen,18 cases showed intimal flap.Entry tears were 7 cases respectively.The involvements of aortic branches were 20 among 9 cases (including 1 case aneurysm and 8 cases aortic dissection)aortic branches respectively.Conclusion Aortic aneurysm and intraaneurysmal architecture can be clearly showed on MRI.MR is one of the optimal imaging techniques in diagnosing aortic disease.
