VOLUMES(Technical considerations) • Cine film: • 15-60 fps; • Radiographic contrast: • 7-15mL/s and 30-50mL. • Sites: • Left ventricle; • Left atrium (trans-septal technique); • Severe aortic insufficiency: • Aortic root.
Ventricular volumes • Silhouette must be traced: • Marged visible contrast; • Include trabeculations and papillary muscles.
Ventricular volumes • Approximated by an ellipsoid; • Regression equations correct the overestimation. • Biplane projection to • determinate M and N.
Ventricular volumes • Area-length method (Dodge); • Biplane oblique (RAO/LAO):
Ventricular volumes • Single plane formula: • AP or RAO; • Left ventricular shape is a spheroid (ellipsoid wich two minor axes are equal).
VENTRICULAR VOLUMES • Volume correction: • Overestimation by papillary muscles and trabeculaes. • Regression equations
EJECTION FRACTIONREGURGITANT FRACTION • EF= (EDV-ESV) EDV • RF= SV angiographic – ESV forward) SV angiographic
Left Ventricular Mass • Is assumed that wall thickness is uniform
Wall Stress • σ= PR 2h • Meridional, radial and circunferencial. A and B: semi-axis
REGIONAL LEFT VENTRICULAR WALL MOTION • Akinesis, dyskinesis, hypokinesis and hyperkinesis.
