Official title
A Prospective Study on Point-of-Care Focused Cardiac Ultrasound in Assessing for Thoracic Aortic Dimensions, Dilation, and Aneurysm in Correlation With CT Angiogram in Suspected Cases of Pathology
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this prospective study is to compare point-of-care focused cardiac ultrasound (FOCUS) to thoracic computed tomographic angiography (CTA) in the measurement of ascending aortic dimensions. We hypothesize that FOCUS will demonstrate good agreement with CTA in the measurement of ascending aortic dimensions and accurately detect dilation and aneurysmal disease.
