Advantages of combined hemodynamic and ultrasonic studies in man

  • Chapter
Echocardiology

Abstract

A long sought goal in clinical cardiology has been the quantitative description of left ventricular performance in man. Until recently, this has exclusively involved the use of a combined hemodynamic-angiographic method for the derivation of a number of functional indices for both the systolic and diastolic phases of the cardiac cycle.
