Abstract

Objective:To value the role of multi-slice spiral CT in the diagnosis of AIH.Methods:12 patients who suspected of aortic disease were performed with conventional CT and CTA with 16-multi-slice spiral CT.The multiplanar reconstruction (MPR),maximum intensity projection (MIP) and volume rendering (VR) were recruited to delineate the penetrating ulcers and intramural hematoma.Results:12 patients with AIH wet confirmed,10 of 12 AIH were type B.4 patients with IMH were found to be caused by aortic penetrating unlcer.Conclusion:MSCT can play an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of aortic intramural hematoma.
