The principles of ultrasound diagnosis are briefly explained and the technique of the examination is described with particular reference to the measures taken to ensure the exact measurement of diameters. The modalities for the echographic presentation of the normal and aneurysmatic aorta is illustrated, together with the respective pictures. It is suggested that echography be employed both as a preliminary technique and as a supplement to angiography, which is not itself particularly applicable in the case of aneurysms. Above all, it can be considered as the sole and resolutive examination on account of the findings it offers.
简要解释了超声诊断的原理，并描述了检查技术，特别提及为确保准确测量直径所采取的措施。展示了正常主动脉和动脉瘤主动脉的超声成像方式以及相应图片。建议将超声检查既用作初步技术，也用作血管造影的补充，血管造影本身在动脉瘤病例中并不特别适用。最重要的是，鉴于其提供的检查结果，它可被视为唯一且决定性的检查。
