Changes in Cross-Sectional Area and Transverse Diameter of the Heart on Inspiratory and Expiratory Chest CT: Correlation with Changes in Lung Size and Influence on Cardiothoracic Ratio Measurement

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate physiological changes in cardiac area and diameters between inspiratory and expiratory chest computed tomography (CT), and to assess their correlation with lung size change and influence on cardiothoracic ratio (CTR) measurements. MATERIALS AND MET...
