Chest CTs done for unrelated reasons have the potential to reveal unsuspected abnormalities and provide complementary information to help direct appropriate management. By thoroughly understanding the diagnostic role and limitations of CT in assessing ventricular size and morphology as well as myocardial attenuation, enhancement, and thickness, radiologists will be better equipped to differentiate between normal and abnormal findings and provide precise, clinically appropriate recommendations.
