Clinicians often encounter discrepant measurements of the ascending aorta that impede, complicate, and impair appropriate clinical assessment-including key issues of presence or absence of aortic growth, rate of growth, and need for surgical intervention. These discrepancies may arise within a single modality (computed tomography scan, magnetic resonance imaging, or echocardiography) or between modalities. The authors explore the origins and significance of these discrepancies, revealing that some "truth" usually underlies all the discrepant measurements, which individually look at the ascending aorta with different perspectives and dimensional definitions. The authors conclude with a practical "question and answer" section that addresses common specific issues in interpretation and management of patients in the real-world setting.

胸主动脉测量的差异

临床医生经常会遇到不同的升主动脉测量结果,这会阻碍、复杂化和损害适当的临床评估——包括主动脉生长的存在与否、生长速度和手术干预的需要等关键问题。这些差异可能出现在单一模式(计算机断层扫描、磁共振成像或超声心动图)内或模式之间。作者探讨了这些差异的起源和意义,揭示了一些“真相”通常是所有差异测量的基础,这些测量分别以不同的视角和维度定义观察升主动脉。作者以一个实用的“问答”结束
