Applying post-processing techniques of computed tomography imaging in diagnosing aortic dissection

Abstract

Abstract Post-processing techniques of computed tomography imaging are playing a dominant and critical role in evaluation of AD. It is vivid for showing the whole contour of aorta, from different view. Post-processing techniques not only provide information of location, but also provide information of invading range.
