Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • In year one, this data will be used to develop pulsatility software and test robustness.

    First Year

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • In year two, the time-resolved CT angiographic datasets from each patient will be analyzed to determine peak AAA pulsatility and peak AAA relative pulsatility (to cross-sectional area within the aneurysm).

    Year Two

Study Arms (3)

1

Aortic aneurysm repair

2

Aortic aneurysm growth

3

Aortic aneurysm growth stable.

Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Patients undergoing imaging of their abdominal aortic aneurysm

You may qualify if:

  • AAA must be at least 3 cm to a maximum 4.9cm cross-sectional diameter.
  • BMI 31 or less.
  • Creatinine results \<2.0 and within six months prior to scan.
  • US patients must have only normal creatinine (0.9 to 1.4) for one year before study visit.
  • Patients who are originally scheduled for US, who are then subsequently rolled in this study, will have only a ultrasound scan as followup after the initial CTA.

You may not qualify if:

  • Creatinine \> 2.0.
  • Creatinine \<0.9 or \>1.4 for those who are scheduled for US.
  • Atrial fibrillation or other arrythmia.
  • Known AAA greater than 5 cm in size.
  • Allergy to contrast dye.
