From: Cardiac Computed Tomographic Angiography and the Primary Care Physician J Am Osteopath Assoc. 2012;112(5):267-275. doi:10.7556/jaoa.2012.112.5.267 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.
