Doppler tissue imaging quantitates regional wall motion during myocardial ischemia and reperfusion.
BACKGROUND Quantification of regional myocardial function is a major unresolved issue in cardiology. We evaluated the accuracy of pulsed Doppler tissue imaging (DTI), a new echocardiographic technique, to quantify regional myocardial dysfunction induced by acute ischemia and reperfusion. METHODS AND RESULTS In nine open-chest anesthetized pigs, various degrees of regional wall motion abnormal...
متن کاملNoninvasive Assessment of Myocardial Mechanics of the Left Ventricle in Rabbits Using Velocity Vector Imaging
BACKGROUND Our study aimed to investigate the feasibility of velocity vector imaging (VVI) to analyze left ventricular (LV) myocardial mechanics in rabbits at basal state. MATERIAL AND METHODS The animals used in this study were 30 New Zealand white rabbits. All rabbits underwent routine echocardiography under VVI-mode at basal state. The 2-dimensional (2-D) echocardiography images acquired i...
متن کاملEchocardiographic Assessment of Left Ventricle Torsion by Tissue Doppler and Velocity Vector Imaging
Introduction Left ventricular (LV) twist is believed to store potential energy and plays an important role in generating diastolic suction. Recent advances in echocardiography techniques have allowed quantification of LV twist. The aim of the present study was to compare LV twist and torsion in healthy human subjects determined by velocity vector imaging (VVI) and tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) a...
متن کاملLongitudinal wall motion of the common carotid artery can be assessed by velocity vector imaging
Velocity vector imaging (VVI) is novel ultrasound image analysis software, enabling simultaneous evaluation of longitudinal and radial tissue motion. This study aimed to investigate the possible usefulness of VVI in evaluating the longitudinal vessel wall movement of the common carotid artery (CCA). Sixteen healthy volunteers and 16 patients with established coronary artery disease (CAD) were i...
متن کاملassessment of the efficiency of s.p.g.c refineries using network dea
data envelopment analysis (dea) is a powerful tool for measuring relative efficiency of organizational units referred to as decision making units (dmus). in most cases dmus have network structures with internal linking activities. traditional dea models, however, consider dmus as black boxes with no regard to their linking activities and therefore do not provide decision makers with the reasons...
