Evaluation of cardiac function in asthmatic children by Tissue Doppler Echocardiography [PDF]
Background Bronchial asthma is a global health problem with rising prevalence in developing countries. Children with severe asthma can experience cor pulmonale later in life, but little is known about the cardiac changes that might be present earlier in ...

Abnormal myocardial performance index in M-mode color tissue Doppler-echocardiography [PDF]
The myocardial performance index (MPI) is used for global systolic-diastolic left ventricular function and prognosis assessment in patients with heart disease, allowing assessment of the patient‘s current condition and disease development follow-up.

Doppler Tissue Echocardiography: Myocardial Wall Motion Velocities in Essential Hypertension [PDF]
Doppler tissue echocardiography (DTE) was applied to extract the myocardial wall velocities along different planes and evaluate the left ventricular function in essential hypertension.Fifty-four hypertensives (HT) were compared to a control group of 31 normotensive (NT) subjects.

Acute Haemodialysis-induced Changes in Tissue Doppler Echocardiography Parameters
Background: Tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) is a method that determines the tissue motion and velocity within the myocardium. Aims: To characterize acute haemodialysis (HD)-induced changes in TDI-derived indices for patients that have end-stage renal ...

Tissue Doppler echocardiography – A case of right tool, wrong use [PDF]
Background The developments in echocardiography or ultrasound cardiography (UCG) have improved our clinical capabilities. However, advanced hardware and software capabilities have resulted in UCG facilities of dubious clinical benefits. Is tissue Doppler
