Apical conicity ratio: A new index on left ventricular apical geometry after myocardial infarction  Hongguang Fan, MD, Zhe Zheng, MD, Wei Feng, MD, Yan Zhang, MD, Lixin Jin, MD, PhD, Peng Li, MD, Shengshou Hu, MD, FACC  The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery  Volume 140, Issue 6, Pages 1402-1407.e3 (December 2010) DOI: 10.1016/j.jtcvs.2010.02.017 Copyright © 2010 The American Association for Thoracic Surgery Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 The magnetic resonance images and schematic diagrams depicted the 2-chamber view used to measure the areas of apical area and apical triangle in a patient (image A and B, ACR = 2.05) and a healthy (image A′ and B′, ACR = 1.24). Long-axis length was measured in 2-chamber view from the apex to the midpoint of the mitral valve and short-axis length was measured as the axis that perpendicularly intersects the midpoint of the long axis. The apical area was defined as the area of blood pool from the short axis to apex and its value was measured automatically by tracing of endocardial contour through an interactive interface (A, A′). The apical triangle area was calculated by the length of long axis and short axis (B, B′). ACR was the ratio of the area of apex over the area of apical triangle.
