Thoracic aorta at multi-detector row CT: motion artifact with various reconstruction windows.

The authors assessed motion artifact of the thoracic aorta in 25 patients who underwent multi-detector row computed tomography (CT) with retrospective electrocardiographic (ECG) gating. CT reconstructions centered at four phases of diastole were compared for five different levels of the thoracic aorta. A significant positive correlation was observed between heart rate and motion artifact (r = 0.72, P <.001). The optimal reconstruction phase varied between patients, and this was directly related to heart rate. For patients with a heart rate of 70 beats per minute, the reconstruction phase centered at 75% of the R-R interval had the significantly least motion artifact (P =.004). Conversely, the optimal reconstruction phase for patients with heart rates above 70 beats per minute was centered at 50% of the R-R interval (P =.09).
