Thoracic Aortic Emergencies on Ultrasound: Recognizing Aneurysms and Dissections
Description
In this video, Dr. Jailyn Avila walks you through how to diagnose thoracic aortic aneurysms and thoracic aortic dissection using bedside ultrasound.
While the abdominal aorta often gets the most attention, aortic disease above the diaphragm is just as critical—and often harder to recognize. Early detection of thoracic aortic pathology can be life-saving, and ultrasound can play a key role in raising suspicion quickly.
