Figure Legend:
Because the computed tomography slices are 0.625 mm thick, a 64-slice computed tomography scan covers a length of 40 mm
with each heartbeat. Because the average length of the heart is 240 to 300 mm, approximately 6 to 8 heartbeats are required for a
64-slice scanner to image the full length of the heart.
