Prognostic Value of CT-derived Left Atrial and Left Ventricular Measures in Patients with Acute Chest Pain

Highlights • LV mass and LA diameter are independent prognostic factor for composite MACE. • LV mass and LA diameter were not significant prognostic factors for MACE in African Americans. • Assessment of LV mass by CT may have a role in the management of patients.
