64-MDCT for exclusion of coronary artery disease. Short-axis reformation
images of 64-MDCT data during end-diastole (A) and end-systole
(B) correlate well with MR images (C and D).

Fig. 2A —Bland-Altman plots. Plots for end-diastolic volume (EDV)
(A), end-systolic volume (ESV) (B), stroke volume (SV)
(C), and ejection fraction (EF) (D) show good agreement between
64-MDCT and MRI. There is no systematic variation.
