Tissue Doppler imaging: current and potential clinical applications.
Echocardiography when combined with spectral and colour flow Doppler is well established as a safe, non-invasive, and versatile diagnostic modality in cardiology, and is now the predominant technique used for evaluation of left ventricular function and for the assessment and quantification of valvar heart lesions. When combined with physiological or pharmacological stress, echocardiography also...
متن کاملClinical applications of tissue Doppler imaging: a promise fulfilled.
The clinical applications of tissue Doppler imaging in the assessment of left ventricular diastolic function have moved from the experimental lab to clinical practice.
متن کاملVentricular excitation maps using tissue Doppler acceleration imaging: potential clinical application.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study is to validate the use of tissue Doppler acceleration imaging (TDAI) for evaluation of the onset of ventricular contraction in humans. BACKGROUND Tissue Doppler acceleration imaging can display the distribution, direction and value of ventricular acceleration responses to myocardial contraction and electrical excitation. METHODS Twenty normal volunteers ...
متن کاملClinical positron emission tomography imaging--current applications.
Positron emission tomography (PET) is an established imaging technique based on the use of short-lived radiotracers. The unique value of PET lies in the ability of various radiochemical compounds to serve as tracers for measuring specific metabolic processes in the body. This enables detection of the early biochemical anomalies that precede the structural changes seen on other imaging technique...
متن کاملPerivascular cells and tissue engineering: Current applications and untapped potential
The recent development of tissue engineering provides exciting new perspectives for the replacement of failing organs and the repair of damaged tissues. Perivascular cells, including vascular smooth muscle cells, pericytes and other tissue specific populations residing around blood vessels, have been isolated from many organs and are known to participate to the in situ repair process and angiog...
