Abstract:

There is a great advance in diagnosis and management of congenital heart disease. One of the great interest is multi detector computed tomography (MDCT). The echocardiography is the standard of the diagnosis of cases with cardiac disease.

Recently, the MDCT is used for more accurate diagnosis and treatment, MDCT can visualize the interacardiac and extracardiac structures. One of the rare type of cardiomyopathies is non compaction of the left ventricle (NCLV). There are many types of genetic disorders that result in different arrangement of the endocardium. These difference can’t be clearly evaluated by echocardiography in contrast to MDCT. MDCT will find correlation between the morphological and the genetic pattern.
