Eligibility

Sex/Gender
All
Age
18 Years to 95 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Patients who underwent coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) at our institution during the study period; 2. Complete imaging data available for post-processing and image interpretation; 3. Availability of basic clinical information (e.g., age and sex); 4. Availability of concurrent or previous echocardiography reports for comparison.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Poor image quality that prevents evaluation of the interatrial septum; 2. Presence of severe congenital heart disease or complex cardiac structural abnormalities that may interfere with image interpretation; 3. Inability to visualize the interatrial septum or failure of image reconstruction in the atrial septal region; 4. Missing key clinical or imaging data (e.g., absence of essential echocardiographic results).
