Equations for Estimating the Predissected Diameter of the Descending Aorta From Computed Tomographic Images at the Onset of Aortic Dissection

BACKGROUND: Estimation of the predissected descending aortic diameter is important for deciding on the size of a stent graft in cases of acute aortic dissection. However, no equations for estimating this diameter have been previously reported. METHODS AND RESULTS: We developed and validated new equa...
