*True aneurysms will often have a wide neck and are often apical in location.
CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of LV aneurysm. CT scan findings are suggestive for location, size and presence of thrombosis in aneurysm wall.
*False aneurysms will often have a narrow neck and are often posterior diaphragmatic in loccation.

Overview

Chest CT scan with or without contrast may reveal the size and the location of LV aneurysm also, it can show the presence of calcification on it.

CT

CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of LV aneurysm. CT scan findings are suggestive for location, size and presence of thrombosis in aneurysm wall.
