Monitoring of Adult Zebrafish Heart Regeneration Using High-Frequency Ultrasound Spectral Doppler and Nakagami Imaging

Sensors, 2019
This paper reports the feasibility of Nakagami imaging in monitoring the regeneration process of zebrafish hearts in a noninvasive manner. In addition, spectral Doppler waveforms that are typically used to access the diastolic function were measured to ...

A Clinician’s Guide to Tissue Doppler Imaging [PDF]

Circulation, 2006
Tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) is a relatively new echocardiographic technique that uses Doppler principles to measure the velocity of myocardial motion. We describe the principles behind and the clinical utility of TDI. Doppler echocardiography relies on detection of the shift in frequency of ultrasound signals reflected from moving objects.

Right ventricular function assessment in single LAD lesion patients using strain and strain rate imaging

Alexandria Journal of Medicine, 2016
Background: Strain and strain rate imaging is currently the most popular echocardiographic technique that reveals subclinical myocardial damage, and data are not available on this imaging method with regard to assessing right ventricular involvement in ...

Tissue Doppler imaging in cardiac sarcoidosis [PDF]

European Heart Journal - Cardiovascular Imaging, 2008
A middle-aged African lady, who presented with ventricular tachycardias, mitral valve regurgitation and congestive heart failure, was diagnosed with cardiac sarcoidosis. Tissue Doppler imaging demonstrated abnormalities suggestive of myocardial scar, which was confirmed by contrast-enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance.

Tissue Doppler echocardiography and biventricular pacing in heart failure: Patient selection, procedural guidance, follow-up, quantification of success

Cardiovascular Ultrasound, 2004
Asynchronous myocardial contraction in heart failure is associated with poor prognosis. Resynchronization can be achieved by biventricular pacing (BVP), which leads to clinical improvement and reverse remodeling. However, there is a substantial subset of

Capillaroscopy in 2016 : new perspectives in systemic sclerosis [PDF]

, 2016
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune disorder of unknown etiology characterized by early impairment of the microvascular system. Nailfold microangiopathy and decreased peripheral blood perfusion are typical clinical aspects of SSc.

Preliminary definitions for the sonographic features of synovitis in children [PDF]

, 2016
Objectives Musculoskeletal ultrasonography (US) has the potential to be an important tool in the assessment of disease activity in childhood arthritides. To assess pathology, clear definitions for synovitis need to be developed first.
