描述 | For over a quarter of a century, echocardiography has made anunparalleled contribution to clinical cardiology as a major tool forreal-time imaging of cardiac dynamics. Echocardiography is widely usedto assess cardiac function, and provides noninvasive information whichis invaluable for the diagnosis of various disease states. In spite ofits numerous advantages, in the clinical arena echocardiography hasremained mostly qualitative and subjective. However, continuedprogress in our understanding of the interactions between ultrasoundand tissue characteristics have brought about several new developmentswhich allow quantitative analysis of ultrasound data. Among these newdevelopments are endocardial boundary detection (frequently referredto as Acoustic Quantification), Color Kinesis and Doppler myocardialimaging. .The purpose of this book is to provide the reader with the backgroundnecessary to understand and successfully utilize these methodologies.Chapters summarize in detail the studies that have validated thesetechniques thus far, and discuss their future applications. |
