Aortic Imaging: Your Questions Answered
40:25-41:06
Q:
One person says that the doctor says that their child has a marfanoid physique, so they have the outward signs. What tests should be taken to confirm or rule out the aortic enlargement in possible Marfan?
マルファン症候群に似た外見的な特徴があるお子さんの場合、大動脈の拡張があるかどうかを調べるにはどのような検査を受ければいいのでしょうか？
A:
I think it's a child, right? Yes. Yeah, you know, some of the young children they will not be unable to cooperate with MRI. CT is a very good technique on the first time if you do, or MRA, too. Actually if they can they're able to respond to commands whole breath and that kind of stuff, it's not very young a kid I would do an MRI as the first choice after an echo, specifically.
お子さんですと、MRIやMRAの検査に協力できない可能性もありますので、そうした場合には、CTが最適な初回検査になります。ある程度の年齢のお子さんで、息を止めるなどの指示に従えるようであれば、私ならエコー後の初回検査はMRIを選択します。
