Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
This article describes the evolving role of echocardiography for the detection and evaluation of thoracic aortic aneurysms. A brief summary of the clinical, anatomical, and pathological features of the etiologic categories of thoracic aneurysms is presented. The advantages and limitations of echocardiography and its comparison with other techniques (computed tomographic scanning, magnetic resonance imaging, and aortography) are discussed.
