Yonsei Medical Journal, 06/26/09
Kim M et al. - The aim of this study was to evaluate new cardiac deformity indexes (CDIs) for diagnosis of pectus excavatum as well as morphological assessment of heart on computed tomography (CT). CDIs such as the CCI and CAI may be potentially useful to detect and estimate repair for pectus excavatum.
