Abstract

Objective:To investigate the value of 64-slice spiral CT angiography in diagnosing aortic dissection. Methods:Retrospective analysis 10 cases of aortic dissection in 2009 to 2011 first half,all diagnose by 64-slice spiral CT angiography,and 6 cases Treatment by DSA.Results:CT results,6 cases were classified with Stanford type B,and 4 cases with Stanford type A.Six cases of Stanford B type treated by aortic endovascular repair of stent-graft.Postoperative classification are full compliance with CT.Four cases of Stanford type A are considered by Clinical unsuitable for Interventional procedures,conservative treatment,no surgical.Conclusion:The 64-slice spiral CT angiography not only a good diagnosis method of aortic dissection,but also can type correctly,guide treatment.
