Assessment of transmural distribution of myocardial perfusion with contrast echocardiography.
BACKGROUND We hypothesized that by using our newly defined method of destroying microbubbles and measuring their rate of tissue replenishment, we could assess the transmural distribution of myocardial perfusion. METHODS AND RESULTS We studied 12 dogs before and after creation of left anterior descending coronary artery stenoses both at rest and during hyperemia (n=62 stages). Microbubbles wer...

متن کاملChanges in transmural distribution of myocardial perfusion assessed by quantitative intravenous myocardial contrast echocardiography in humans.
OBJECTIVE To clarify whether changes in transmural distribution of myocardial perfusion under significant coronary artery stenosis can be assessed by quantitative intravenous myocardial contrast echocardiography (MCE) in humans. METHODS 31 patients underwent dipyridamole stress MCE and quantitative coronary angiography. Intravenous MCE was performed by continuous infusion of Levovist. Images ...

متن کاملAssessment of myocardial perfusion using contrast echocardiography – Case report
Contrast echocardiography is a technique that improves endocardial demarcation and provides real-time data on blood circulation (blood flow, velocity). Left ventricle imaging study using contrast agents that cross the pulmonary circulation allows an improved visualization of endocardial tissue. This creates a more accurate ultrasound evaluation of left ventricular dimensions and its kinetics. C...
