What Is the Specificity of the Aortic Dissection Detection Risk Score in a Low ‐prevalence Population?
ConclusionsOur study confirms that in North America the prevalence of AAS in those undergoing advanced imaging is low. The ADD ‐RS in this population has a low specificity. A lack of defined inclusion criteria and a low specificity limits the application of this rule in practice.
