Outline of Final Research Achievements

We have built the protocol of dual source CT with ECG triggered high pitch spiral acquisition to evaluate the morphological feature of congenital heart disease. The outcome of our study suggest that this CT scan method has capacity to clearly evaluate the configuration of heart with congenital heart disease. This research subjects were reported in article (Jpn J Radiol 2018;36:215-22)
