Abstract The purpose was to compare global left-ventricular (LV) function parameters measured with cine MRI with results from multiphase dual-source CT (DSCT) using 10 and 20 reconstruction phases. Twenty eight patients with suspected or known coronary artery disease underwent DSCT coronary angiography. LV end-diastolic (EDV), end-systolic (ESV) and stroke volumes (SV), and … Read more
