Evaluation of diagnostic power of Tissue Doppler Echocardiography for assessment of cardiac iron overload in patients with thalassemia major

International Journal of Hematology-Oncology and Stem Cell Research, 2015
Background and Aim: Iron overload in patients with thalassemia major is one of the most important complications of this disease and its cardiac complications are the most important causes of death in these patients.MRI T2 is the perfect device to assess ...

Cardiac imaging in athlete’s heart: current status and future prospects

Cardiovascular Ultrasound, 2023
Background Physical activity contributes to changes in cardiac morphology, which are known as “athlete’s heart”. Therefore, these modifications can be characterized using different imaging modalities such as echocardiography, including Doppler (flow ...

A Wireless, Wearable Carotid Doppler Ultrasound Aids Diagnosis and Monitoring of Pericardial Tamponade: A Case Report

Critical Care Explorations, 2023
BACKGROUND:. Pericardial tamponade can often be diagnosed through clinical findings and echocardiography; however, the diagnosis can be aided by demonstrating the hemodynamic consequences of the effusion. We describe the use of a wearable carotid Doppler

Consecutive Emergency Carotid Artery Stenting and Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in a Patient With Cardiogenic Shock: A Case Report

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Severe aortic stenosis (AS) carries a poor prognosis when symptomatic, particularly in cardiogenic shock (CS). Emergency transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is rarely performed but may represent a rescue therapy. Coexistent carotid artery stenosis (CAS) further increases procedural risk.

Contrast Doppler echocardiography.

Cor et vasa, 1985
First clinical experiences with contrast Doppler echocardiography -- a new technique of cardiac ultrasound examination are described. The presence of contrast material within the right heart cavities following the peripheral vein injection is easily recognized by characteristic Doppler signal changes. This knowledge was used to detect a small amount of

Doppler echocardiography: A contemporary review [PDF]

Journal of Cardiology, 2009
The 2D echocardiographic examination of the heart provides insight into structure and function, providing a precise anatomical display of the cardiovascular anatomy with high temporal resolution. Prior to advances in 2D imaging, Doppler echocardiography had been the mainstay of cardiovascular noninvasive assessment. Doppler echocardiography, remains an

Coronary Flow in Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy—Immediate Effects of Alcohol Septal Ablation

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is associated with alterations in coronary microvascular function which have variable pathophysiologic mechanisms, and variable reversibility acutely and chronically following alcohol septal ablation (ASA).

Progression and prognostic significance of electrocardiographic findings in patients with cardiac amyloidosis

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 809-818, April 2025.
Abstract Aims This study aimed to evaluate the change of the main electrocardiographic (ECG) characteristics and their prognostic role across the main subtypes of cardiac amyloidosis [light‐chain amyloidosis (AL) and hereditary (ATTRv) and wild‐type transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRwt)].

Growth differentiation factor‐15 and N‐terminal pro‐BNP in acute heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 888-899, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) continues to be an increasingly common health problem associated with a high mortality rate. Elevated levels of Growth differentiation factor‐15 (GDF15) and N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP) are reportedly associated with poor clinical outcomes in a broad range of ...

'Color Doppler stripes’ make it difficult to diagnose the severity of valvular heart diseases: a report of two cases

Cardiovascular Ultrasound
Background Echocardiography remains the reference-standard imaging technique for assessing valvular heart disease (VHD), but artifacts like the ‘color Doppler stripe’ can complicate diagnosis.
