The value of duplex ultrasound versus contrast enhanced CT scan in the follow-up of endoluminally repaired abdominal aortic aneurysm : a blinded study

I-To compare aneurysm diameter measurements, and the detection of endoleaks in patients post endoluminal aortic aneurysm repair by colour duplex ultrasonography as compared to contrast enhanced CT scan as the gold standard. 2-To evaluate whether contrast enhanced ultrasound (levovist) improves the accuracy of colour duplex ultrasound for the detection of endoleaks as compared to CT.
