Abstract
Aortic diameter measurements correlate with luminal areas in patients with type B aortic dissection. This implies area increases proportionately with diameter over time. Therefore, diameter measurements using multiplanar reconstructions based on a central luminal line appear to be adequate when assessing aortic remodeling after endovascular treatment of aortic dissection.
