Abstract :
The function of left ventricle (LV) was evaluated by ejection fraction (EF) computed from minimum systolic and maximum diastolic phase CTA. The EF was took contrast enhanced of LV into consideration during phases of minimum systolic and maximum diastolic. In this study, the systolic volume ratio (sVr) was developed and used to analyze function of LV. The sVr was significant difference between positive and negative groups as well as EF. On the other hand, the sVr was high correlated with EF.
