A method has been described for the digital computer calculation of intracardiac ventricular volumes from orthogonal biplane x-ray images. It is directly applicable to both left and right ventricles and uses equipment commonly found in medium size computer centers. Validation of the method is presented using data from geometrical shapes and casts of human ventricular cavities.
