Abstract
In the present review, we discuss the role of CT imaging in the management of aortic dissection, with a particular emphasis on endovascular treatment considerations. Computed tomography imaging is a fundamental tool in the diagnosis and management of acute and chronic aortic dissection. Its diagnostic accuracy and high resolution contribute to and guide operative strategy. Persistent high mortality for patients who develop aortic dissections suggests a need for innovative diagnostic and treatment strategies. In the recent era, considerable advances have been made in computed tomography (CT) image acquisition, processing, and analysis as well as endovascular technologies with expanded roles in the treatment of aortic diseases.
