Imaging of the aortic root on high-pitch non-gated and ECG-gated CT: awareness is the key!

Imaging of the aortic root on high-pitch non-gated and ECG-gated CT: awareness is the key!

Abstract The aortic pathologies are well recognized on imaging. However, conventionally cardiac and proximal aortic abnormalities were only seen on dedicated cardiac or aortic studies due to need for ECG gating. Advances in CT technology have allowed motionless imaging of the chest and abdomen, lead...
