Abstract：The assessment of left ventricular function plays an important role in the diagnosis, risk stratification, treatment and prognostic analysis of cardiac disease. As a noninvasive imaging technique, cardiac computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) plays an important role not only in the assessment of coronary artery stenosis, but also in obtaining information about left ventricular volume and function. Sixty four or more multi-slice CT (MSCT) can provide one-stop evaluation of coronary artery and left ventricular function with high reproducibility, less contrast usage and reduced radiation exposure. The CCTA has high clinical value.
