Useful CT Findings for Predicting the Progression of Aortic Intramural Hematoma to Overt Aortic Dissection

Abstract

Type A aortic intramural hematoma, maximum thickness of hematoma, compression of true lumen, and pericardial or pleural effusion are the useful CT findings for predicting the progression of aortic intramural hematoma to aortic dissection.
