Description

Radionuclide venticulography has already today become an important instrument in the diagnostics of cardiac diseases. The indications are derived from teh possibilities of radionuclide ventriculography to establish, on the one hand, (regional) disturbances of ventricular mobility and to determine, on the other hand, important haematodynamic parameters. Especially in the case of coronary cardiac disease, radionuclide venticulography has the decisive advantage that it can be carried through under stress. It is important to differentiate between confirmed indications and additional information, to be obtained by the investigation. (orig./MG)

Abstract (German)

Die Radionuklidventrikulographie (RNV) hat heute bereits einen wichtigen Stellenwert in der Diagnostik von Herzkrankheiten erreicht. Die Indikationen ergeben sich aus den Moeglichkeiten der RNV, einerseits (regionale) Bewegungsstoerungen der Ventrikel zu erkennen und andererseits wichtige haemodynamische Parameter zu bestimmen. Vor allem bei der koronaren Herzkrankheit hat die RNV den entscheidenden Vorteil, auch als Belastungsuntersuchung durchgefuehrt werden zu koennen. Es ist wichtig zwischen gesicherten Indikationen und Zusatzinformationen, die sich aus der Untersuchung ergeben, zu unterscheiden. (orig./MG)
