Accurate and Reproducible Measurements of Right Ventricular Function in Daily Practice
Traditionally right ventricle (RV) has been considered as a conduit or passive-dependent chamber mainly affected by loading conditions. 1) Therefore, except for special situations such as pulmonary hypertension or complex congenital heart disease, main interest has been focused on left ventricle (LV). One of the reasons of eagerness for left sided parameters may come from complexity of RV morph...
متن کاملAsymmetry of right ventricular enlargement in response to tricuspid regurgitation.
BACKGROUND Analysis of right ventricular adaptation to tricuspid regurgitation was studied in 10 heart transplant recipients following inadvertent endomyocardial biopsy disruption of the tricuspid apparatus. METHODS AND RESULTS Echocardiography demonstrated progressive diastolic right ventricular cavity enlargement (19.5+/-5.0 to 30.3+/-5.4 cm(2), P<0.0002), with disproportionate elongation a...
متن کاملAccuracy and precision of measurements obtained from conventional cephalograms and CBCT scan in orthodontics linear diagnostic measurements
Background and Purpose: Due to the important role of imaging in the diagnosis and treatment plan in orthodontics, CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) images because of their three-dimensional nature, can minimize the disadvantages of two-dimensional images such as magnification, distortion, or superimposition. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of conventional cephalograms...
متن کاملAsymmetrical ventricular enlargement in Parkinson's disease.
Parkinson's disease (PD) typically manifests with asymmetric motor symptom onset. Ventricular enlargement, a nonspecific measure of brain atrophy, has been associated with cognitive decline in PD, but not with motor symptom asymmetry. Asymmetrical ventricular enlargement on magnetic resonance images was explored in a monozygotic twin pair discordant for PD and in nine healthy monozygotic twin p...
متن کاملLateral ventricular enlargement in schizotypal personality disorder.
Although an increase in the ratio of ventricular space to brain (ventricle-brain ratio), VBR) on computed tomography (CT) has been among the most robust findings in chronic schizophrenia, VBR has not been investigated in a large, well-characterized clinical population of patients with schizotypal personality disorder (SPD), a clinical entity with a phenomenologic, gentle biological, and treatme...
