aortogram การใช้

Other tests that may be used include an aortogram or magnetic resonance angiogram of the aorta.
The initial angiographic evaluation can include an abdominal aortogram, Celiac arteriograms, and selective right and left hepatic arteriograms.
If the clinical index of suspicion is high, ruling out dissection with another imaging modality ( CT angiogram, MRA, aortogram, or transesophageal echo ) is imperative.
The aortogram was previously considered the gold standard test for the diagnosis of aortic dissection, with a sensitivity of up to 88 % and a specificity of about 94 %.
The advantage of the aortogram in the diagnosis of aortic dissection is that it can delineate the extent of involvement of the aorta and branch vessels and can diagnose aortic insufficiency.
