Left atrial dimensions in growth and development: normal limits for two-dimensional echocardiography.
Reference values for normal left atrial dimensions have been based primarily on blind M-mode measurements, with no reports based on two-dimensional echocardiography to provide a comprehensive analysis of the two-dimensional measurements from infancy to old age. This report analyzes the left atrial dimensions from two-dimensional echocardiographic studies in 268 normal healthy subjects to determ...
متن کامل11In-Labeled Platelet Scintigraphy and Two-Dimensional Echocardiography for Detection of Left Atrial Appendage Thrombi
"'In-labeled platelet scintigraphy and two-dimensional echocardiography were performed in 40 dogs to determine the ability of the two techniques to detect left atrial appendage thrombi. Thrombi were induced in 33 dogs that were classified into two groups, "acute" or "chronic," according to the time of labeled-platelet injection after thrombus induction. In the acute group (17 dogs), platelets w...
متن کاملPredictive value of normal left atrial volume in stress echocardiography.
OBJECTIVES Our objective was to evaluate whether normal left atrial volume index (LAVI) is a predictor of a normal stress echocardiogram and thus a predictor of low ischemic risk. BACKGROUND Left atrial enlargement is closely related to the chronicity and intensity of the burden of increased ventricular filling pressure. Typically ischemic heart disease (IHD) has a long period of subclinical ...
متن کاملRotational method simplifies 3-dimensional measurement of left atrial appendage dimensions during transesophageal echocardiography
BACKGROUND Not all echo laboratories have the capability of measuring direct online 3D images, but do have the capability of turning 3D images into 2D ones "online" for bedside measurements. Thus, we hypothesized that a simple and rapid rotation of the sagittal view (green box, x-plane) that shows all needed left atrial appendage (LAA) number of lobes, orifice area, maximal and minimal diameter...
متن کاملLeft ventricular deformation and two-dimensional echocardiography: temporal and other parameter values in normal subjects.
Segmental contractility can be assessed quantitatively by analyzing deformation, or strain, and the rate of deformation, or the strain rate. This type of analysis can be performed using either tissue Doppler imaging or, more recently, two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography. The aim of this study was to determine typical parameter values in healthy subjects and their reproducibility. ...
