Abstract:The left atrium wall has several origins, including the body, appendage, septum, atrial‐ventricular canal, posterior wall, and venous component. Here, we describe the morphogenesis of left atrium based on high‐resolution imaging (phase‐contrast X‐ray computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging). Twenty‐three human embryos and 19 fetuses were selected for this study. Three‐dimensional cardiac images were reconstructed, and the pulmonary veins and left atrium, including the left atrial appendage, were eva… Show more
