Noninvasive estimation of cardiac output from left ventricular assist devices is feasible using first-pass dynamic computed tomography. By affording simultaneous good visualization of the device in situ, computed tomography may be useful for noninvasive assessment of location and function of ambulatory patients with left ventricular assist devices.
