Aortic root dilatation

Chest
Blood Vessels & Circulation

Aortic root dilatation is a widening of the section of the aorta closest to the heart. It can develop gradually and is often found unexpectedly on imaging. An MRI may show changes in the width of the aortic root. Finding aortic root dilatation early allows for monitoring to ensure it does not progress to a size that may require intervention.

SCReening explained
It’s important to understand that OneMRI's full-body scan is a general proactive health scan developed to include areas where preventative screening delivers the most meaningful insight in a way that is safe and non-invasive. The scan should be used to compliment other routine scans and screening. It should not replace standard screening protocols or targeted procedures as recommended by your doctor, specialist or health provider. Examples of these include mammogram, prostate examination, cervical screening, colonoscopy, and lung cancer screening.
