title: [The place of radiologic research procedures in the diagnosis of aortic dissection].
abstract: Aortic dissection is a rare but life-threatening disease that requires a prompt and exact diagnosis. That is why the radiologist now assumes a central role due to the introduction of new imaging modalities. Each of them can make a contribution while having its own limitations. The choice of the right examination procedure and its correct application determine a successful radiological diagnosis. On the basis of experience with more than 150 operated patients we explain our diagnostic strategy in aortic dissection.
