Digital twin study for chronic aortic dissection
Treatments studied
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study is creating a digital twin model to predict how chronic thoracic aortic dissection progresses. If you have a type A or type B aortic dissection, this study may help researchers better understand your condition without additional stress or invasive procedures.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are over 18 years old
- You have a type A aortic dissection that needs surgery, or a type B aortic dissection that is being watched and treated without surgery
- You can have an MRI (no metal implants, no claustrophobia, no kidney problems that would stop you)
- You are not pregnant, breastfeeding, or in labor
- You don't have an allergy to gadolinium (a contrast dye used in MRIs)

This study collects medical information and blood-test timing data to learn how to diagnose aortic dissection sooner and predict outcomes. It may help doctors better plan care for people with suspected or confirmed aortic dissection.
This trial is studying treatments for people with a sudden tear in the main artery from the heart (type A aortic dissection) or a similar condition. It aims to improve outcomes after this emergency.
This trial tests two different stent procedures to repair a torn aorta in people with severe narrowing that limits blood flow to organs. It compares the usual stent method with a new one to see which gives better results.
This trial uses artificial intelligence to better analyze CT scans of the aorta, the large artery that carries blood from your heart. If your CT scan shows the aorta is partly cut off or missing in the images, the AI will help measure the parts that are fully visible.
This trial tests whether using artificial intelligence to guide treatment choices can improve recovery in people with a sudden tear in the main artery (aortic dissection). All participants will receive emergency surgery, but the AI may help doctors tailor the approach to each person's condition, potentially reducing complications.
This trial tests a special stent graft for people with a type B aortic dissection that needs a new blood flow path to the left subclavian artery. The device is placed in the aortic arch to repair the tear and keep blood flowing normally.
