Excursion-volume relation of the right hemidiaphragm measured by ultrasonography and respiratory airflow measurements.
BACKGROUND Although real time ultrasonography has been used in the last decade to record diaphragmatic motion, the relation between diaphragmatic excursion and different inspired volumes (VT) has not been assessed by ultrasound. METHODS Ten normal subjects were studied in the supine posture. Diaphragmatic excursion and VT were assessed simultaneously by M mode ultrasonography and respiratory ...

dyspnoea or palpitations [1, 3–5]. In symptomatic patients, percutaneous aspiration and ethanol sclerosis can be suggested , as well as surgical resection [3, 5]. In asymptomatic patients, no treatment is necessary [5]. Annual observation is optional and can be performed by echocardiography, CT or CMR.

متن کاملDyssynchrony by speckle-tracking echocardiography and response to cardiac resynchronization therapy: results of the Speckle Tracking and Resynchronization (STAR) study
AIMS The Speckle Tracking and Resynchronization (STAR) study used a prospective multi-centre design to test the hypothesis that speckle-tracking echocardiography can predict response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). METHODS AND RESULTS We studied 132 consecutive CRT patients with class III and IV heart failure, ejection fraction (EF) < or =35%, and QRS > or =120 ms from three inter...
متن کاملMeasure of roughness of paper using speckle
Roughness of a paper surface is particularly important in paper and board destined to be printed. Surfaces are often coated and the amount of coating and method of application used depends on the roughness of the base paper. We present a method of measure of the roughness of the paper based in the analysis of speckle pattern on the surface. Images are captured by means of a simple configuration...
