Electrocardiogram
Shown below is an example of an EKG of a person with a left ventricular aneurysm. Note the ST elevation in the anterior leads.
True aneurysms distort the shape of the left ventricle during both diastole and systole, and the motion of the aneurysmal segment is paradoxical. This can be associated with ST changes including ST elevation, particularly at high heart rates as might be encountered during exercise.
