The early results in the investigation of normal and pathological hearts using fast computer tomography are presented. By means of tomographic sections of cadaver hearts, it has been shown that it is possible to distinguish the ventricular cavities and individual cardiac walls by this non-invasive method. Changes in volume of the ventricles and atria due to various forms of stress are easily distinguishable. Myocardial scars can be distinguished from other circumscribed myocardial defects. The particular advantages of this method, which is non-invasive, painless and easily repeatable, do not need to be stressed. The technique adds a significant dimension to previously available non-invasive diagnostic methods, such as ultrasound echo-cardiography.
