Involvement of the ascending aorta constitutes a surgical emergency, making rapid diagnosis essential. Noninvasive imaging, once no better than aortic angiography, has been bolstered by the advent of transesophageal echocardiography. It can be performed at the bedside, its accuracy approaches 100%, and the patient can be on the way to the operating room within 10 minutes.
升主动脉受累构成外科急症,因此快速诊断至关重要。非侵入性成像技术曾不比主动脉血管造影术更好,但经食管超声心动图的出现使其得到了加强。它可以在床边进行,其准确性接近100%,患者可以在10分钟内前往手术室。
