Aortic dissection: morphology and differential flow velocity patterns demonstrated by magnetic resonance imaging.
A case of chronic aortic dissection is presented, in which computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging both demonstrated the abnormality non-invasively. Velocity flow patterns within the true and false lumens obtained by magnetic resonance imaging, using a flow-mapping technique, gave a more thorough analysis.
