Abstract：Objective To analyze the anatomical features of the abdominal aorta in adults through MSCT (Multi-Slice Spiral Computerized Tomography). Methods Imaging records of 213 patients (118 cases of male patients; 95 cases of female cases; 109 elder patients; 104 young patients) who had undergone abdominal enhanced MSCT or CTA (Computerized Tomography Angiography) in the hospital were collected to measure the anteroposterior and transverse diameter of abdominal aorta in the cross-sectional images. Results Altogether 213 abdominal aortas were revealed, among which the anteroposterior and transverse diameter of abdominal aorta in male patients were larger than those in female cases; those in older patients were greater than young patients; the anteroposterior diameter of abdominal aortas was greater than the transverse diameter with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). Conclusion MSCT demonstrated excellent abilities in display of anatomical features of abdominal aortic dissections, which could provide clinical guidance and significant blood supply anatomical information in vivo in a non-invasive way for surgical abdominal operations, liver or kidney transplantation and interventional treatment.
