Prognostic value of dobutamine stress myocardial contrast perfusion echocardiography.
BACKGROUND Myocardial perfusion (MP) imaging with real-time contrast echocardiography (RTCE) improves the sensitivity of dobutamine stress echocardiography for detecting coronary artery disease. Its prognostic value is unknown. We sought to determine the value of MP and wall motion (WM) analysis during dobutamine stress echocardiography in predicting the outcome of patients with known or suspec...
متن کاملLong-term prognostic value of dipyridamole stress myocardial contrast echocardiography.
AIMS The aim of this prospective study was to determine long-term prognostic value of myocardial contrast echocardiography (MCE) combined with high-dose dipyridamole stress echocardiography (DSE) in patients undergoing diagnostic work-up for stable coronary artery disease (CAD). METHODS A total of 202 consecutive patients (67% males, age 57±8 years) with suspected or known stable CAD schedule...
متن کاملPrognostic value of high-dose dipyridamole stress myocardial contrast perfusion echocardiography.
BACKGROUND The addition of myocardial perfusion (MP) imaging during dipyridamole real-time contrast echocardiography improves the sensitivity to detect coronary artery disease, but its prognostic value to predict hard cardiac events in large numbers of patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease remains unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS We studied 1252 patients with the use of dipyrid...
متن کاملSafety of dobutamine stress real-time myocardial contrast echocardiography.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to determine the safety of dobutamine stress myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) obtained by real-time contrast echocardiography (RTCE) and intravenous ultrasound contrast in a large cohort of patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD). BACKGROUND Despite the increasing number of studies showing the potential clinical utility of myocardial contra...
متن کاملPrognostic value of dobutamine stress echocardiography in patients with diabetes.
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to assess the incremental value of dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) for the risk stratification of diabetic patients who are unable to perform an adequate exercise stress test. Exercise capacity is frequently impaired in patients with diabetes. The role of pharmacologic stress echocardiography in the risk stratification of diabetic patients has not be...
