Cardiovascular computed tomography (cine CT) of abnormal left ventricular wall motion due to epicardial pacing electrodes

A patient with an abnormal cardiac silhouette on chest X-ray was studied by fast cardiovascular computed tomography (cine CT). The location of epicardial pacing electrodes and their relationship to myocardial wall motion abnormalities were examined. This eliminated the need for cardiac catheterizati...
