This book collates all the current knowledge of cardiac CT and presents it in a clinically relevant and practical format appropriate for both cardiologists and radiologists.

CT is an accurate technique for assessing cardiac structure and function and this book provides all the relevant information on this modality. It is useful in evaluating the myocardium, coronary arteries, pulmonary veins, thoracic aorta, pericardium, and cardiac masses; because of this and the speed at which scans can be performed, CT is even more attractive as a cost-effective and integral part of patient evaluation. The images have been supplied by an experienced set of contributing authors and represent the full spectrum of cardiac CT.
