title: [Diagnosis of aortic aneurysms by computerized tomography (author's transl)].
abstract: Computerized tomography has proved to be of great value in the assessment of aortic aneurysms; since it provides all necessary information about length, width, intraluminal thrombi, and calcification of the wall. Especially in cases of ruptured aneurysms the hemorrhage and its extent to retroperitoneal and intraperitoneal space can be well demonstrated.
