abstract：:Type A acute intramural hematoma (IMH) of the ascending aorta is defined as hemorrhage in the aortic wall in the absence of intimal disruption. Proximity to the adventitia may explain the higher incidence of rupture in IMH. We present a case of IMH, diagnosed by the presence of linear intense uptake of FDG on PET/CT, ...
