Understanding Aortic Measurement's

By

I had a echo done was told aortic root is 4.4cm I was told to get a CT with contrast and have the sinus of valsalva checked.

My report said this

The ascending aorta has a transverse dimension of 3.7 cm at the level

of the main pulmonary artery which is within normal limits. At the

sinotubular groove just above the coronary sinuses as measured in the

sagittal plane the aorta is 3.8 cm in diameter.

What does this mean? Do I need to request more measurements?

AI for radiology - A survey

By
Hello folks! We are a group of students from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University (Sweden). We are conducting a short survey (it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time) to evaluate an Artificial Intelligence framework for evaluating medical imaging and, in particular, the effect that explainability can have on clinicians' attitudes toward it. We welcome anyone who interacts with medical imaging to take our survey, so please, feel free to do it even if you are still a student or an intern! If you know someone who works in the field, please, pass them the survey. It would help us greatly. https://bit.ly/RTEX_survey Thanks in advance to all of you! submitted by /u/francozzz [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/r2ratp/ai_for_radiology_a_survey/
