Diastolic left ventricular functional indices: Comparison between gated myocardial perfusion SPECT and echocardiography
Introduction: Many patients have only diastolic dysfunction without any abnormality in systolic function. We compared cardiac diastolic parameters obtained by gated myocardial perfusion SPECT (Gated SPECT) with those evaluated by echocardiography. Methods: Forty-nine patients (aged 37-85 years, 19 males and 30 women) underwent Gated SPECT and echocardiogr...
متن کاملcomparison of gated spect myocardial perfusion imaging with echocardiography for the measurement of left ventricular volumes and ejection fraction in patients with severe heart failure
conclusions gated spect mpi has a good correlation with echocardiography for the measurement of left ventricular ef, edv, and esv in patients with severe heart failure. however, the absolute values of these functional parameters from echocardiography and gated spect mpi measured with different software packages should not be used interchangeably. results a good correlation was found between ech...

متن کاملComparison between Gated SPECT and Echocardiography in Evaluation of Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction
Left ventricular (LV) function and volumes, along with myocardial perfusion, have major diagnostic and prognostic importance inpatients with coronary artery disease [4,11,13,14, 18,20,27]. Myocardial perfusion scintigraphy is a well-established technique for evaluation of myocardial perfusion [16,26,37,38]. Electro cardiographic gating during the acquisition of SPECT perfusion images has become...
متن کاملComparison of left ventricular volumes and ejection fraction assessment by two-dimensional echocardiography compared with gated myocardial spect in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy.
AIM The aim of this study was to assess accuracy of echocardiography in the measurement of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), enddiastolic volume (EDV) and endsystolic volume (ESV) compared with gated SPECT. METHODS A total of 70 patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction were enrolled to study. Median of the time interval between gated SPECT and echocardiography was 1 hour. ...
