“…New, normal ranges for this new technique will need to be established. In the present study, the RV mass was not measured, as the pixel size was in the order of two mm and the wall thickness of the RV was in the order of four mm (16). It would be possible to measure the RV mass in RV hypertrophy with this pixel size, but not in normal hearts.…”

“…Although fat can also be assessed at MR imaging, we chose to use multidetector CT because high blood pool attenuation allows for automated endocardial segmentation (18) and because its higher spatial resolution is particularly adapted to the study of the thin RV wall. The choice of a 2-mm thickness in which RV 7 CARDIAC IMAGING: Automated Quantification of Right Ventricular Fat at Cardiac Multidetector CT Cochet et al wall densities were analyzed was based on previously reported normal values of RV wall thickness (19). Indeed, because it predominates in subepicardial layers of the myocardium, it is often not possible to discriminate between abnormal intramyocardial fat and normal epicardial fat.…”
