Nontraumatic determination of left ventricular ejection fraction by radionuclide angiocardiography.
Previous reports have suggested that left ventricular ejection fraction can be assessed by recording the passage of peripherally administered radioactive bolus through the heart. The accuracy and validity of this technique were examined in 20 patients undergoing diagnostic cardiac catheterization. 99m-Tc-human serum albumin was injected via a central venous catheter into the superior vena cava ...
متن کاملLeft Ventricular Performance Assessed by Radionuclide Angiocardiography and Echocardiography
In 61 patients (77 studies) who had a transmural myocardial infarction, we compared the left ventricular ejection fraction by echocardiography with the ejection fraction determined by a computerized radioisotope technique that makes no assumptions regarding left ventricular geometry. In 31 studies of 26 patients with normal left ventricular wall motion by videotracking and normal left heart siz...
متن کاملDetection 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 کاملRadionuclide evaluation of postextrasystolic potentiation of left ventricular function induced by atrial and ventricular stimulation.
Postextrasystolic potentiation of left ventricular function induced by ventricular and atrial stimulation was compared in 10 patients using radionuclide ventriculography. After insertion of pacing wires, a preliminary radionuclide ventriculogram was obtained and then ventricular and atrial trigeminy was induced in random order, each with identical R-R coupling intervals, each for 6 to 10 minute...
متن کاملCombined biomarker testing for the prediction of left ventricular remodelling in ST-elevation myocardial infarction
OBJECTIVE The utility of different biomarkers for the prediction of left ventricular remodelling (LVR) following ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) has been evaluated in several studies. However, very few data exist on the prognostic value of combined biomarkers. The aim of this study was to comprehensively investigate the prognostic value for LVR of routinely available biomarkers measu...
