2009, Surgical Clinics of North AmericaCitation Excerpt :The rates of contrast reactions, contrast-induced nephropathy, groin hematomas, and pseudoaneurysm formation are low. Disadvantages of aortography include the need for a skilled team to perform the study, and a majority (85%–95%) of these diagnostic aortograms are negative.47,54–57 Helical computed tomography angiography (CTA) has supplanted aortography as the diagnostic modality of choice, with sensitivity and negative predictive values approaching 100%.58–60
