Evaluation of mitral insufficiency in dogs by electronic analog simulation of radioisotope dilution data.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Left atrial and left ventricular volumes, regurgitant flows and systolic efficiencies have been calculated for dogs with and without mitral valve insufficiency, using a technic of electric analog simulation of radioisotope dilution data. Amounts of blood between the valve of the pulmonary artery and the left atrium were calculated by use of mean transit time and flow, and compared to those of the analog. It is concluded that the analog technic is practical and will be more useful when data is available on flow patterns in the pulmonary bed.

Evaluation of diastolic blood flow dynamic of the left ventricle in dogs with mitral valve regurgitation using vector flow mapping
Mitral valve regurgitation (MVR) is a common valvular disease in dogs. Hydrokinetic evaluation of the blood flow within the ventricles has become possible by vector flow mapping (VFM), which shows the blood flow within the ventricles in vector and vortex flows. Blood flow within the left ventricle of MVR dogs was compared at different stages of MVR and to that of normal dogs. 14 normal dogs and...
متن کاملAssociation between the severity of chest pain and the severity of mitral valve prolapse in children
Introduction: One of the causes of chest pain in children is mitral valve prolapse (MVP). This study aimed to investigate the association between the severity of chest pain and the severity of MVP. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was designed on 103 children aged 7 to 18 years suffering from MVP along with chest pain. By using echocardiography, severity of MVP was assessed in ...
متن کاملAnalog computer analysis of flow characteristics and volume of the pulmonary vascular bed.
Radioisotope dilution data were obtained from the pulmonary artery and pulmonary vein of eatheterized dogs and an analysis for pulmonary transfer characteristics was performed with an electronic analog computer. The analog for these studies consisted of a cascade of linear delay units arranged so that both transport delay and dispersion could be independently varied. This teehnic makes it possi...
متن کاملFollow up the Treatment Process of Mitral Valve Diseases by Radiography and Echocardiography in Dogs
Background: Mitral valve disease is the most common acquired heart disease in dogs. Mitral valve regurgitation (MR) due to endocardiosis is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in dog. Echocardiography as a non-invasive tool is routinely used to evaluate and diagnose different disorders in the heart. Objectives: The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of medical treatmen...
متن کاملComparison of computerized digital and analog radiography for detection of bronchial pattern in dogs
Background: Analog radiography has been replaced with digital radiography for canine diagnostic imaging in many veterinary clinics. There is no data comparing these modalities in a veterinary clinical setting to detect bronchial pattern signs in dogs. Objectives: In this study, computerized digital radiography (CR) and analog radiography were compared for diagnosis of bronchial pattern in dogs....
