Abstract: Objective Using the function of 256-layer i CT in the determination of cardiac function and arterial elasticity index, to compare the arterial elasticity, left ventricular function and their correlation between patients with aortic dissection and non-dissected controls, and to provide a reference for the clinical treatment of patients with aortic dissection. Me thods This study selected 36 cases in our emergency department, with chest, back or abdominal pain, whose clinical symptoms were highly suggestive of aortic dissection, and plain or enhanced diagnosis confirmed aortic dissection as a case group. At the same time, we randomly selected 40 cases without aortic dissection as the control group. All subjects underwent CTA one-stop scanning and measurement of elastic and cardiac function at the same level. According to the measurement results, the arterial elasticity indexes and the measured cardiac function of the case group and the control group were evaluated and compared so that to evaluate the arterial elasticity and its correlation with left ventricular function in patients with aortic dissection.Re s ults patients' s arterial expansion and compliance in patients with aortic dissection were significantly lower than the control group (P <0.05) . The mean diameter change rate and stiffness of the patients with dissection were significantly lower than those in the control group (P>0.05) . The difference was not statistically significant. The mean stiffness in patients with aortic dissection was significantly higher than non-aortic dissection patients. In patients with aortic dissection, the mean arterial diameter change rate, expandability and arterial stiffness showed a highly negative correlation. There was no significant correlation between arterial elasticity index and cardiac function in patients with Stanford type A and Stanford type B aortic dissection. There was no significant correlation between each elasticity index and cardiac function in the control group (r <0.3) . Conclus ion CTA one-stop scan can be used as an important measure of arterial elasticity, cardiac function and other parameters in patients with aortic dissection. Significantly lower aortic expansion and compliance, increased stiffness, insignificant changes in cardiac function, and insignificant correlation between cardiac function and each elasticity index in patients with early aortic dissection all have a clinical significance.
