Evaluation of Global and Regional Left Ventricular Function With 16-Slice Computed Tomography, Biplane Cineventriculography, and Two-Dimensional Transthoracic Echocardiography: Comparison With Magnetic Resonance Imaging Export

@article{citeulike:972956, abstract = {ObjectivesWe sought to compare left ventricular (LV) function assessed with multislice computed tomography (MSCT), biplane cineventriculography (CVG), and transthoracic echocardiography (Echo), with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as the reference standard.BackgroundWith the same data as acquired for noninvasive coronary angiography, MSCT enables registration of myocardial function.MethodsA total of 88 patients (64 men and 24 women) underwent MSCT with 16 x 0.5 mm detector collimation, CVG, and MRI, whereas Echo was retrospectively analyzed in a subset of 30 patients.ResultsRegarding the ejection fraction, the agreement was significantly superior for MSCT than for CVG (+/- 10.2\% vs. +/- 16.8\%; p ConclusionsOur results indicate that the assessment of global and regional LV function with MSCT is more accurate than with CVG, whereas MSCT is superior to Echo for global function.
