Summary

Endovascular therapy of Aortic Aneurysms depends on good imaging facilities. A relatively new kind of x-ray equipment makes it possible to create computer tomography (CT) - like slice images in the operating room. The purpose of this study is to verify the clinical usefulness of DynaCT in a preoperative setting. To do so we compare aortic measurements in DynaCT to the same measurements in ordinary CT-images which are regarded the gold standard.

Conditions

• Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
RADIATION	DynaCT	One extra set of images with DynaCT including one extra injection of contrast medium.
DRUG	Iodixanol	One extra set of images with DynaCT including one extra injection of 50 ml contrast medium.
