ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the feasibility of the demonstration for morphologic characteristics of pulmonary vein(PV)and left atrium(LA)with 64-multislice computed tomography(MSCT).Methods Between February 2006 and February 2007,we studied morphologic characteristics of the pulmonary vein and left atrium in 88 patients undergone 3D imaging and virtual endoscopy with 64-slice MSCT scanner.46 patients in atrial frillation(AF)group and 42 subjects without history of AF in control group.Results 1.64-slice MSCT can reconstruct properly the morphology,number,size of orifice and flow route of pulmonary veins;among them,the sizes of orifice of pulmonary veins in AF group and control group showed no significant difference.2.The reconstruction images of left atrial appendages(LAA)showed that there were two kinds of morphologic variation existing at the crista between left auricle and left superior pulmonary vein with the continuatum of the left superior and inferior pulmonary veins.3.The reconstruction images,also revealed 3 types of left atrial top;including convex type(9%),concave type(32.9)and plateau type(58.1%);with approximately 12.5% of local convexity.Conclusion Clear demonstration of pulmonary vein and left atrium through 3D reconstruction of MSCT provides higher successful rate of RFCA for AF with simultaneous decrease of complications
