Echocardiographic Assessment of Left Ventricle Torsion by Tissue Doppler and Velocity Vector Imaging
Introduction Left ventricular (LV) twist is believed to store potential energy and plays an important role in generating diastolic suction. Recent advances in echocardiography techniques have allowed quantification of LV twist. The aim of the present study was to compare LV twist and torsion in healthy human subjects determined by velocity vector imaging (VVI) and tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) a...
متن کاملtissue doppler echocardiographic findings of left ventricle in children with sickle-cell anemia
background: sickle-cell disease (scd) is an inherited hemoglobin childhood disorder, frequently complicated by pulmonary hypertension and cardiac involvement. cardiovascular events and complications are the leading cause of mortality and morbidity in patients with scd. tissue doppler imaging and the myocardial performance index (tei index), are simple indices for the assessment of the cardiac f...
متن کاملNormal left ventricular systolic time intervals assessed by pulsed wave Doppler echocardiography in the Turkmen horse of Iran
The Turkmen horse is one of the oldest and purest breeds in the world. There is no information with regards to the normal echocardiographic parameters of this horse regarding to cardiac diseases. Pulsed-wave (PW) Doppler echocardiography was performed on 42 clinically normal 3- to 15-year-old racing Turkmen horses. There were 26 stallions and 16 mares. The left ventricular isovolumetric contrac...
متن کاملDoppler Tissue Echocardiography and Electrocardiography in Children with Celiac Disease Compared to Controls
Background Celiac disease (CD) is an autoimmune mediated gluten sensitive enteropathy and characterized by a wide range of clinical manifestations. The study aimed to compare Doppler tissue echocardiography findings between children with celiac disease and healthy children. Materials and Methods This case-control study was performed on 186 celiac and healthy children aged 6- 19 years. Celiac d...
متن کاملAortic atresia with normal sized left ventricle
Aortic atresia with an associated ventricular septal defect and adequate sized left ventricle is extremely rare. We present two cases in which an alternate diagnosis was suggested on echocardiography because the hypoplastic aortic trunk was missed due to its small caliber. The final diagnosis was, however, clinched on dual source computed tomography, which not only showed the thin aortic trunk ...
