Assessment of Cardiac Performance With Quantitative Radionuclide Angiocardiography Effects of Oral Propranolol

Assessment of cardiac performance with quantitative radionuclide angiocardiography. Effects of oral propranolol on global and regional left ventricular function in coronary artery disease.

The effect of incremental dosages of oral propranolol (mean peak dose of 165 +/- 13 mg/day) of left ventricular ejection fraction, ejection rate and regional wall motion was studied sequentially in 22 stable, resting patients with coronary artery disease using a geometry-independent first-pass radionuclide angiocardiographic technique. All patients improved clinically, in association with a fal...

Assessment of left ventricular performance and myocardial viability using quantitative radioisotope techniques.

The diagnostic value of a combined radionuclide technique was compared with conventional angiocardiographic techniques in 60 patients with coronary artery disease. Quantitative 201Tl myocardial imaging combined with radionuclide angiocardiography using 99mTc-HSA provided a safe and accurate method for the assessment of left ventricular performance. The defects on the 201Tl images correlated wit...

on left ventricular ejection fraction, ejection rate and regional wall motion was studied sequentially in 22 stable, resting patients with coronary artery disease using a geometry-independent first-pass radionuclide angiocardiographic technique. All patients improved clinically, in association with a fall in heart rate and therapeutic serum propranolol levels. No significant changes were noted ...
