“…In this work, we use it to study the impact of gender and age on the myocardial wall thickness. The results are in line with clinical findings (Kitzman et al, 1988;Nikitin et al, 2006;Salton et al, 2002). However, we can also apply SPM to exploring the unknown covariates, for example, the impact of certain genes on cardiac morphology.…”

“…Similar gender-specific differences were found regarding LV dimensions using MRI [20] and echocardiography [17]. Our CT data regarding SWT dia , PWT dia , LVID dia , LAD sys , and RWT are comparable to the reference values reported for echocardiography [17].…”

“…In order to define an increase or decrease of any parameter, the 2.5th and the 97.5th percentile value should be taken as threshold. Gender-specific values have to be taken into account, because differences exist in LV morphology and function between men and women [20]. LV and LA dimensional measurements are important determinants for diagnosis, therapeutic decision making, and prognosis.…”

“…This reinforces the need for modality-specific reference values. The assessment of global LV function with 64-slice CT has recently shown an excellent correlation with single photon emission CT [20].…”

“…Normal ranges of LV and LA dimensions, global LV function, and myocardial mass have been established in healthy individuals for echocardiography [15][16][17] and for MRI using steady-state free precession [18,19] and gradient echo sequences [18,20,21]. However, CT studies on LV and LA dimensions are still lacking, and reference values of LV and LA dimensions, global LV function, and myocardial mass parameters have not yet been defined for cardiac CT.…”

Reference values for quantitative left ventricular and left atrial measurements in cardiac computed tomographyAbstract To assess reference values for left ventricular (LV) and left atrial (LA) dimensions, global LV function, and LV-myocardial mass for cardiac CT. We examined 120 subjects undergoing a coronary angiography using 64-slice and dual-source CT. All individuals had a low cardiovascular risk, normal ECG, negative biomarkers, and a normal cardiac CT examination. All subjects had a negative medical history of cardiovascular disease both on admission and at clinical 6-month follow-up. The following measurements were obtained: septal wall thickness (SWT), posterior wall thickness (PWT), LV inner diameter (LVID), LA anterior posterior diameter (LAD sys ), end-systolic volume (ESV), and end-diastolic volume (EDV), LV-myocardial mass (LVMM). We found significant gender-related differences for all LV dimensions (SWT sys , SWT dia ,PWT sys , PWT dia ,LVID sys ,LVID dia ). LAD sys showed no significant difference between males and females. Significant differences were found for global LV functional parameters including ESV, EDV, and SV, whereas no significant differences were found for the EF. LVmyocardial mass parameters showed significant gender-related differences. No significant correlation was found between any of these parameters and age. All data were transferred to percentile ranks. This study provides gender-related reference values and percentiles for LV and LA quantitative measurements for cardiac CT and should assist in interpreting results.
