Conditions
Brief summary
The objective of this study is to find, in acute phase of aortic dissection, CT scans characteristics through radiomics features, that can help us to predict a significant growth of dissected descending aorta or a false lumen enlargement in order to treat the patient promptly.
Interventions
Patients with type A or type B acute aortic dissection, treated either with medical therapy or with endovascular/open surgery in the study period and who underwent subsequent radiological follow-up.
