Detection of left atrial myxoma by gated radionuclide cardiac imaging.
Gated radionuclide cardiac blood pool scans (GCS) of end-systole and end-diastole or eight images subtending the entire cardiac cycle were performed on seven patients with left atrial myxomas documented by pulmonary cineangiography with left atrial follow-through. The ethocardiogram was either suggestive or diagnostic in all patients. In addition to demonstration of the tumor (6 patients), the ...
متن کاملQuantification of valvar regurgitation by cardiac gated pool imaging.
Fifty patients with aortic and/or mitral regurgitation underwent gated pool imaging and cardiac catheterisation to quantify the severity of valvar regurgitation. Gated pool imaging was performed in the left anterior oblique projection and an estimate of regurgitant fraction derived by comparison of the left ventricular to right ventricular stroke volume expressed as a ratio. In 17 normal subjec...
متن کامل[Non-invasive assessment of cardiac function].
Noninvasive assessment of cardiac function by Doppler echocardiography is reviewed. The heart propels the blood through the repeated sequence of systole and diastole. The systolic function is essential to maintain the biological function of the whole body. However, before the heart ejects the blood during systole, the heart must be filled up with blood during the preceding diastole. Thus, the d...
متن کاملMeasurement of aortic and mitral regurgitation by gated cardiac blood pool scans.
A simple, noninvasive radionuclide technique which measures the severity of valvular regurgitation has been developed. The technique compares right and left ventricular stroke volume indices (change in counts between diastole and systole over the left and right ventricles) from 45 degrees LAO gated cardiac blood pool scans. In 14 control subjects, the left-to-right ventricular stroke index rati...
متن کاملDNA Damages on Blood Cells After Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Introduction: Along with the increased use of cardiac imaging at clinics there is increased attention to the potential risks related to the methods used like magnetic resonance (MR) and it cannot be ruled out that MR can alter DNA structure. The aim of this review is to assess the impact of routine cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) scanning on DNA damages in human T lymphocytes....
