Abstract
The authors discuss the methodology of the computer-aided tomography of the heart which is to include dynamic scanning with, if indicated, synchronous ECG paralleled with the intravenous bolus administration of the contrast medium. The synchronization with ECG makes it possible to obtain a computer-aided tomographic image of the heart at any phase of the cardiac cycle. Computer-aided tomography was performed in 306 patients with various forms of heart disease. Five levels of scanning can be identified under normal conditions which present all structural elements of the heart.
