Thoracic aortic aneurysms: a population-based study.

Journal ArticleDOI

Screening for lung cancer with low-dose spiral computed tomography.

TL;DR: Low-radiation-dose spiral computed tomography and sputum cytology in screening for lung cancer in 1,520 individuals aged 50 yr or older who had smoked 20 pack-years or more is evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Penetrating atherosclerotic ulcers of the thoracic aorta: natural history and clinicopathologic correlations.

TL;DR: Hallmarks of findings on aortography and CT scan include the presence of the ulcer and an intramural hematoma and the potentially progressive and serious nature of this condition may remain unappreciated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Abdominal aortic aneurysms: the changing natural history.

TL;DR: The records of all patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms in a Midwest city with a stable population over a 30-year period were reviewed, revealing an absolute increase in the incidence of AAAs in the population under study and the frequency of rupture was greatest in the last decade.
