Comparison of left ventricular ejection fraction values obtained using invasive contrast left ventriculography, two-dimensional echocardiography, and gated single-photon emission computed tomography

open access: yesSAGE Open Medicine, 2016
Objectives: Left ventricular ejection fraction can be measured by a variety of invasive and non-invasive cardiac techniques. This study assesses the relation of three diagnostic modalities to each other in the measurement of left ventricular ejection ...

Assessment right atrial thrombus by real-time three dimensional transthoracic echocardiography in patient with dilated cardiomyopathy

open access: yesCardiovascular Ultrasound, 2011
We report a case of a 52-year-old patient with dilated cardiomyopathy who presented with worsening heart failure. Two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography and real-time three dimensional transthoracic echocardiography showed severe dilated cardiac ...

Comparative assessment of left atrial volume in healthy cats by two-dimensional and three-dimensional echocardiography

open access: yesBMC Veterinary Research, 2020
Background The left atrium (LA) is an important prognostic parameter in cardiac pathologies of cats. Its size is currently measured in one-dimensional methods, while human medicine considers two- and three-dimensional echocardiography as standard.

Techniques for Identification of Left Ventricular Asynchrony for Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy in Heart Failure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The most recent treatment option of medically refractory heart failure includes cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) by biventricular pacing in selected patients in NYHA functional class III or IV heart failure. The widely used marker to indicate left

Early detection of myocardial dysfunction using two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography in a young cat with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

open access: yesJournal of Feline Medicine and Surgery Open Reports, 2018
Case summary A 5-month-old intact female Scottish Fold cat was presented for cardiac evaluation. Careful auscultation detected a slight systolic murmur (Levine I/VI).

Reliability of Early Fetal Echocardiography for Congenital Heart Disease Detection: A Preliminary Experience and Outcome Analysis of 102 Fetuses to Demonstrate the Value of a Clinical Flow-Chart Designed for At-Risk Pregnancy Management [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Early fetal echocardiography (EFEC) is a fetal cardiac ultrasound analysis performed between the 12th and 16th week of pregnancy (compared with the usual 18-22 weeks).

Echocardiographic Evaluation of Indices of Right Ventricle Dysfunction in Pulmonary Hypertension

open access: yesپزشکی بالینی ابن سینا, 2017
Introduction: Echocardiography is usually the first modalities of imaging to evaluate the structural and functional disorders of the heart and great vessels, and colored flow and Doppler images are able to perform hemodynamic and bloodstream evaluations.

Increased baseline ECG R-R dispersion predicts improvement in systolic function after atrial fibrillation ablation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
BackgroundAtrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction which may improve after AF ablation. We hypothesised that increased ventricular irregularity, as measured by R-R dispersion on the baseline ECG, would ...

"Amber in chamber" an enigmatous right atrial mass in a neonate

open access: yesSaudi Journal of Anaesthesia, 2015
The incidence of fungal infection is increasing worldwide. Although fungal infection is common in adults, few cases have been reported in the neonatal population. We report a case of the preterm neonate of 34 weeks who developed respiratory distress on 2

Systolic ejection murmurs and the left ventricular outflow tract in boxer dogs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Turbulence of various genesis in the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) causes systolic ejection murmurs. The prevalence of murmurs in adult boxer dogs is 50-80%, the majority of which are of low intensity.
