We finally got the results back, so I was hoping to get some perspective from you guys here
Thanks in advance
CT ANGIOGRAM OF THE THORACIC AORTA
The scan used axial slices along with MPR and VRT reconstructions after contrast was injected
The aortic root measures 3.59 cm
In the area where the vessels branch off toward the neck and arms, the width is about 2.7 cm
The descending portion measures around 2.47 cm, and near the aortic hiatus, it's about 2.16 cm
There are calcified atherosclerotic plaques visible in the wall of the thoracic aorta
At the start of the brachiocephalic trunk, the lumen width is roughly 1 cm
The origin of the left subclavian artery shows slight stenosis measuring
0.5 cm
And the origin of the left subclavian artery has a lumen width of about 1 cm
Atherosclerotic plaques are present at the three main branching points of the major vessels supplying the head and neck
The right common carotid artery shows a narrowed lumen of about 4 mm at the level of the thyroid
