| Popis: | OBJECTIVES We measured aortic dimensions, particularly length parameters, using 3D imaging with the aim of refining the risk-morphology for Stanford type A aortic dissection (TAD). METHODS Computer tomography angiography studies were analysed using the curved multiplanar reformats. At defined landmarks, the diameters and lengths of aortic segments were recorded. Three groups were compared retrospectively: patients actually suffering from a TAD (TAD-group; n = 150), patients before suffering a TAD (preTAD-group n = 15) and a healthy control group ( n = 215). Receiver operating characteristic curves (ROCs) were analysed (control versus preTAD) to study the diagnostic value of the individual variables. RESULTS Median diameters of preTAD (43 mm) and TAD (50 mm) aortas were significantly ( P |
