Abstract:Ungated cardio-CT provides good morphologic information in the case of congenital heart disease, volume or pressure loading, left ventricular aneurysm, tumours, thrombi, cardiac calcifications and pericardial diseases. It allows qualitative assessments of myocardial thickness and perfusion of coronary bypass grafts. ECG-gated cardio-CT allows a quantitative assessment of systolic and diastolic myocardial thickness, volume calculation of cardiac cavities and evaluation of functional parameters. The correlation … Show more
