Cover Story: Non-traumatic aortic pathology carries significant morbidity and mortality and requires prompt and accurate evaluation. Today, radiologists and physicians use a highly sensitive and specific MDCT imaging modality that enables them to quickly diagnose acute thoracic aortic disorders in the emergency setting. Furthermore, MDCT allows a more comprehensive understanding of underlying aortic pathophysiologic conditions, their natural course, risk stratification, as well as improving strategies for therapeutic management. A correct diagnosis is only possible through deep familiarity with the spectrum of imaging findings encountered at MDCT examination. View this paper
