The progress in noninvasive imaging techniques for aortic pathology, such as computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance (MRI) and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) have facilitated the diagnosis and management of patients with aortic intramural hematoma (IMH). Despite incomplete understanding of their natural history, it is known there is no significant difference between the IMH and classic aortic dissection (AD) on the incidence of major complication or death. In this article, we present images of patient with type B aortic hematoma and different outcomes in their natural evolution.
用于主动脉病变的无创成像技术取得了进展，如计算机断层扫描（CT）、磁共振成像（MRI）和经食管超声心动图（TEE），这些技术有助于主动脉壁内血肿（IMH）患者的诊断和治疗。尽管对其自然病程的了解尚不完整，但已知IMH与经典主动脉夹层（AD）在主要并发症或死亡发生率上并无显著差异。在本文中，我们展示了B型主动脉血肿患者的图像以及其自然演变过程中的不同转归。
