Description

The ejection fraction of the left ventricle was determined by videodensitometry in 121 patients with angina pectoris. The mean value was 31 per cent. This estimation, which is easily performed by the method described, gives important and accurate information on the left ventricular function which, added to other parameters, should increase the reliability of the clinical evaluation of the patient.
