Objective: To assess the normal reference values of left ventricle (LV) functional parameters in Korean adults on coronary CT angiography (CCTA) with a 320-detector-row CT scanner, and to analyze sex-related differences and correlations with various clinical characteristics. Materials and Methods: This study retrospectively enrolled 172 subjects (107 men and 65 women; age, $58{\pm}10.9years$; body surface area [BSA], $1.75{\pm}0.2m^2$) who underwent CCTA without any prior history of cardiac disease. The following parameters were measured by post-processing the CT data: LV volume, LV functional parameters (ejection fraction, stroke volume, cardiac output, etc.), LV myocardial mass, LV inner diameter, and LV myocardial thickness (including septal wall thickness [SWT], posterior wall thickness [PWT], and relative wall thickness [$RWT=2{\times}PWT/LV$ inner diameter]). All of the functional or volumetric parameters were normalized using the BSA. The general characteristics and co-morbidities for the enrolled subjects were recorded, and the correlations between these factors and the LV parameters were then evaluated. Results: The LV myocardial thickness (SWT, $1.08{\pm}0.18cm$ vs. $0.90{\pm}0.17cm$, p < 0.001; PWT, $0.91{\pm}0.15cm$ vs. $0.78{\pm}0.10cm$, p < 0.001; RWT, $0.38{\pm}0.08cm$ vs. $0.33{\pm}0.05cm$, p < 0.001), LV volume (LV end-diastolic volume, $112.9{\pm}26.1mL$ vs. $98.2{\pm}21.0mL$, p < 0.001; LV end-systolic volume, $41.7{\pm}14.7mL$ vs. $33.7{\pm}12.2mL$, p = 0.001) and mass ($145.0{\pm}29.1$ g vs. $107.9{\pm}20.0g$, p < 0.001) were significantly greater in men than in women. However, these differences were not significant after normalization using BSA, except for the LV mass (LV mass index, $79.6{\pm}14.0g/m^2$ vs. $66.2{\pm}11.0g/m^2$, p < 0.001). The cardiac output and ejection fraction were not significantly different between the men and women (cardiac output, $4.3{\pm}1.0L/min$ vs. $4.2{\pm}0.9L/min$, p = 0.452; ejection fraction, $63.4{\pm}7.7%$ vs. $66.4{\pm}7.6%$, p = 0.079). Most of the LV parameters were positively correlated with BSA, body weight, and total Agatston score. Conclusion: This study provides sex-related reference values and percentiles for LV on cardiac CT and should assist in interpreting results.
