Quantitative assessment of mitral and aortic insufficiency from effective systemic ejection fraction measured by radiocardiography and cardiac chambers scanning

Description

Comparison between the effective systemic ejection fraction defined by radiocardiography and cardiac chambers scanning, and the whole left ventricular ejection fraction calculated by cineangiocardiography allows an accurate assessment of mitral and aortic regurgitation extent. In case of both mitral and aortic insufficiency, each regurgitation can be quantitatively dissociated by means of the aortic isotopic dilution curve recorded at the same time as the radiocardiogram

Abstract (French)

La comparaison de la fraction d'ejection systemique effective determinee par radiocardiographie et scintigraphie des cavites cardiaques, a la fraction d'ejection ventriculaire gauche totale calculee par cineangiocardiographie selective permet d'evaluer avec precision l'importance des regurgitations mitrale et aortique. En cas de double fuite mitrale et aortique, les regurgitations peuvent etre dissociees quantitativement au moyen de la courbe de dilution isotopique aortique enregistree en meme temps que le radiocardiogramme
