Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Ultrafast computed tomography (UFCT) possesses many features that make it uniquely capable in performing measurements of cardiac function. Over the years, numerous validation studies have verified UFCT's ability to provide qualitative and quantitative information about cardiac performance. Documented accuracy and reproducibility in measuring functional parameters, such as volume, mass, contractility, and cardiac output, make UFCT a valuable tool in cardiac imaging. |
