Clinical Usefulness of Echocardiographic Measurement of Proximal Aortic Diameter in Early Differentiation Between Type A Acute Aortic Dissection and ST‐Segment–Elevation Myocardial Infarction

Clinical Usefulness of Echocardiographic Measurement of Proximal Aortic Diameter in Early Differentiation Between Type A Acute Aortic Dissection and ST‐Segment–Elevation Myocardial Infarction

Background Contradictions between management modalities of type A acute aortic dissection (TAAAD) and ST‐elevation–myocardial infarction (STEMI) may result in clinical catastrophe. Therefore, we aimed to explore which 2‐dimensional echocardiography (2DE) findings are optimal for differentiating TAAA...
