Assessment of Left Ventricular Enlargement at Multidetector Computed Tomography

Conclusions: Left ventricular enlargement can be reliably identified on nongated contrast-enhanced multidetector CT when the maximum luminal diameter of the LV is greater than 5.6 cm. Nongated contrast-enhanced CT scan can be used to recognize LVE.
