摘要
Accurate diagnosis of aneurysms of the thoracic aorta and its major branches can easily be performed by CT scanning of the mediastinum. The use of contrast enhancement aids in the diagnosis and allows distinction between flowing and clotted blood within the aneurysm. CT scanning of these lesions seen on chest radiographs may obviate the need for arteriography for diagnosis. © 1979.
