Stress echocardiography

Expert Review of Cardiovascular Therapy, 2004
Stress echocardiography is the combination of 2D echocardiography with a physical, pharmacological or electrical stress. The diagnostic end point for the detection of myocardial ischemia is the induction of a transient worsening in regional function during stress.

Echocardiography

2011
Abstract Heart failure is a complex syndrome that can result from any structural or functional cardiac disorder that impairs the ability of the heart to function as a pump to support a physiological circulation. The most common cause of heart failure in the UK is coronary artery disease; other aetiologies include hypertension, atrial ...

Echocardiography in Sarcoidosis

Current Cardiology Reports, 2018
Cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The diagnosis of CS is challenging and typically one that is only entertained after many other conditions have been ruled out. A high index of suspicion is necessary in order to correctly determine appropriate testing for the disease.

Echocardiography

2018
Echocardiography is the most used and comprehensive cardiovascular imaging modality and is normally considered the first exam of choice for evaluating cardiac structure and function in most clinical conditions. Compared with other imaging techniques, echocardiography may be done quickly, with the least trouble and distress to the patient, and provides ...

Quantitation in echocardiography

Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiology, 1987
Imaging of the heart is the predominant approach to cardiovascular diagnosis in current practice. Of the wide variety of cardiac imaging techniques available, echocardiography is one of the most widely used. Standard methods of quantitation of M-mode and two-dimensional echocardiograms yield reproducible, accurate measurements of cardiac chamber, wall,

Stress Echocardiography and Myocardial Contrast Echocardiography

Cardiology Clinics, 1989
Stress echocardiography has emerged as an accurate, clinically important noninvasive tool for detecting the presence of ischemic heart disease. Details of patient selection, methods, analysis, and interpretation are discussed. The relative merits of peak versus post-exercise data acquisition and qualitative versus quantitative interpretation are ...

Fetal echocardiography

The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2000
Since the first report of fetal echocardiography in 1972 by Winsberg, several advances in ultrasound technology have occurred allowing detailed evaluation of cardiac anatomy in the second trimester fetus. Fetal echo is indicated in high risk pregnancies where the chances of fetus having a congenital heart disease (CHD) are likely to be high e.g., in ...

Advances in Echocardiography

Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2008
Echocardiography remains the main tool for noninvasive cardiac evaluation. Advances in echo technology and techniques offer new information, which will impact both the timing and method of surgical intervention. Three-dimensional echocardiography, in particular, provides improved tools for quantification both of volumes and of flows.

Principles of echocardiography

The American Journal of Medicine, 1977
Echocardiography is basically a diagnostic procedure whereby images of the heart are produced using ultrasound. It can be considered a natural means of sensing one's environment in that this basic technic is used by several animals as sonar. The manner in which the images are created is in many ways similar to light.
