CT and MRI in the Evaluation of Thoracic Aortic Diseases
Figure 8
Descending thoracic aortic aneurysm—(a) axial CT scan image shows a large aneurysm of the descending thoracic aorta, with large intraluminal thrombus. (b) Oblique reconstructed CT image shows a large fusiform descending thoracic aortic aneurysm. There is a 4.3 cm distance between the neck of the fusiform aneurysm and the left subclavian artery, which makes this patient suitable for endovascular repair.
