HISTORY AND CLINICAL

CXR
CXR shows LV configuration on the frontal and LVE on the lateral

ALCOHOLIC CONGESTIVE CARDIOMYOPATHY
Axial CT through the 4 chambers shows isolated LV dilatation in early diastole with the cavity measuring 6.8cms.
CONGESTIVE CARDIOMYOPATHY SYSTOLE AND DIASTOLE
MR in axial plane shows a dilated LV and normal sized LA, RA, and RV. EF was between 10% and 20%
Ashley Davidoff MD
CONGESTIVE CARDIOMYOPATHY SHORT AXIS
61 male, alcoholic with congestive cardiomyopathy
MRI in short axis through the body of the LV in systole (above) and diastole (below)shows a dilated LV without much change in the dimensions of the LV cavity. EF was between 10% and 20%
Ashley Davidoff MD
THE MITRAL VALVE IN SYSTOLE AND DIASTOLE
CONGESTIVE CARDIOMYOPATHY
61 male, with alcoholic congestive cardiomyopathy.
MRI of the heart in short axis, shows the LV in systole (above) with the mitral valve (MV) closed and in diastole (below) with the open mitral valve.
