Evaluation of causal heart diseases in cardioembolic stroke by cardiac computed tomography

Table 1 Information suitable for detection by cardiac computed tomography

Condition	Location	Information
Coronary artery disease	Coronary artery	Stenosis location and severity
		Plaque characteristics
		Plaque burden: CAC score, plaque volume
		Other: Pericoronary FAI, FFRCT
	Myocardium	Enhancement pattern: Perfusion defect, LIE
		Degeneration: Fat, calcification, wall thinning
	Wall motion	Regional wall motion abnormality: LV, RV
		Global function: LV, RV
Valvular heart disease	Native heart valve	Aortic stenosis: BAV or TAV, AVA, pre and post evaluation of TAVR
		Chronic secondary mitral regurgitation: Etiology assessment
		Calcium score: AV, MAC
	Prosthetic heart valve	Mechanical valve dysfunction
	Infective endocarditis	Periannular complication
Congenital heart disease		Anomaly of coronary artery
		Anomaly of thoracic arteriovenous vessels
		Complex and repaired adult congenital heart disease
		Unusual anatomy of atrial and ventricular septal defect
		Quantitative evaluation of right ventricular function

CAC: Coronary artery calcium; FAI: Fat attenuation index; FFR_CT: CT-derived fractional flow reserve; LIE: Late iodine enhancement; LV: Left ventricle; RV: Right ventricle; BAV: Bicuspid aortic valve; TAV: Tricuspid aortic valve; AVA: Aortic valve area; TAVR: Transcatheter aortic valve replacement; AV: Aortic valve; MAC: Mitral annular calcification.
