Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the diagnosis of dissecting aneurysm of aorta with helical CT. Methods:Enhanced helical CT scanning was performed on 12 patients with dissecting aneurysm of aorta. Results:On the axial images, the calcification ,the true and false channels and intimal flap、the location of the rupture and the aortic coverage were analysed. According to type of DeBakey, 3 cases were typeⅠ;2 were typeⅡ;7 were typeⅢ and According to type of A、B,10 cases were A;2 were B . Conclusion:Enhanced helical CT scan is the principal method in diagnosis of dissecting aneurysm of aorta. This examination which is very convenient、quick 、accurate and cheap has important significance in choosing therapeutic method and in evaluating therapeutic efficacy .
