Fifty patients with ischaemic heart disease have been studied by electrocardiographically gated computed tomography (CT) and left-ventricular angiography to assess the accuracy of the former in the measurement of left-ventricular volumes and ejection fraction. There was no significant difference in the measurements of end-diastolic volume (p = 0.9, r = 0.81). Computed tomography significantly overestimated end-systolic volume (p less than 0.001, r = 0.89) and significantly underestimated ejection fraction (p less than 0.001, r = 0.74). Although there is some variation between the two sets of measurements, the correlation between the two techniques is good, indicating that electrocardiographically gated CT could be a useful noninvasive technique for assessing left-ventricular function.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D003327 Coronary Disease An imbalance between myocardial functional requirements and the capacity of the CORONARY VESSELS to supply sufficient blood flow. It is a form of MYOCARDIAL ISCHEMIA (insufficient blood supply to the heart muscle) caused by a decreased capacity of the coronary vessels.

D004562 Electrocardiography Recording of the moment-to-moment electromotive forces of the HEART as projected onto various sites on the body's surface, delineated as a scalar function of time. The recording is monitored by a tracing on slow moving chart paper or by observing it on a cardioscope, which is a CATHODE RAY TUBE DISPLAY. 12-Lead ECG,12-Lead EKG,12-Lead Electrocardiography,Cardiography,ECG,EKG,Electrocardiogram,Electrocardiograph,12 Lead ECG,12 Lead EKG,12 Lead Electrocardiography,12-Lead ECGs,12-Lead EKGs,12-Lead Electrocardiographies,Cardiographies,ECG, 12-Lead,EKG, 12-Lead,Electrocardiograms,Electrocardiographies, 12-Lead,Electrocardiographs,Electrocardiography, 12-Lead
D006321 Heart The hollow, muscular organ that maintains the circulation of the blood. Hearts
D006352 Heart Ventricles The lower right and left chambers of the heart. The right ventricle pumps venous BLOOD into the LUNGS and the left ventricle pumps oxygenated blood into the systemic arterial circulation.

D013318 Stroke Volume The amount of BLOOD pumped out of the HEART per beat, not to be confused with cardiac output (volume/time). It is calculated as the difference between the end-diastolic volume and the end-systolic volume.
