Comparison was made between contrast enhanced cine computed tomo graphy (Cine/CT) and echocardiography in the imaging of the mitral valve in 14 patients. The mitral valve was seen in all 14 patients by Cine/CT using a new long axis view. There was agreement with echocardiography in 12 patients. Abnormalities in mitral valve movement were detected by Cine/CT. Left atrial size and contraction was measured by Cine/CT with a difference in left atrial ejection fraction observed between 13 patients with no evidence of mitral dis ease and 3 patients with mitral disease.
