Echocardiography is and will remain the ... if necessary with contrast), diastolic function (LV filling characteristics and filling pressure, left atrial size and pulmonary vein flow), valve ...

From these signals we simultaneously determine peak and mean aortic velocities and acceleration as indices of cardiac output by Doppler studies and LV systolic function, and mitral E and A velocities ...

Conventional echocardiography combined with new imaging techniques such as tissue Doppler and tissue tracking are sensitive tools to detect early subclinical deterioration of LV function.

as well as echocardiography to assess stroke volume (SV), ejection fraction (EF), systolic blood pressure/end systolic volume ratio (sBP/ESV), and global diastolic filling (E:A) as well as to ...

A new study published in Frontiers of Medicine focuses on establishing normative values for left ventricular (LV) and left ...
