Abstract：Aortic dissection is a life-threatening emergency disease, which needs immediate and effective clinical interventions. In recent years, owing to the widespread use of multidetector computed tomography, the rate of diagnosis of aortic dissection has significantly improved. As a convenient and noninvasive examination, multidetector computed tomography angiography has been used widely in the preoperative diagnosis of aortic dissection and postoperative follow-up. Improving CT scan protocols and powerful post-processing function make the diagnosis of aortic dissection more accurate and provide adequate evidences for clinical treatments. This review summarized the recent application and research progress of multidetector computed tomography angiography in the diagnosis of aortic dissection and its future perspective.
