I know they don't. When she said that, I had zero confidence in anything else she had to say. At that point it was pushing 1 am and they weren't going to do anything else. When my cardiologist opened at 8 AM, I was trying to get in. They had taken off Friday and Monday is holiday. I'm scheduled Tuesday morning. I also called Vanderbilt Aorta Center to get in there. I don't think many Dr's in this area know much about aneurysm. I read that if the cta is for lungs which is what the tech said, that it cuts off before getting to the aortic root. Its frustrating as heck, but I don't know what else to do.

@jaysue41 Not sure what you read about a CT-A and where, but the one I just had got a very detailed, 3-D image of my heart along with entire scan of chest.
