  1. 1. Doppler tissue imaging in ST-elevation myocardial infarction

    Författare :Nils Witt; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Highly available, noninvasive and cost-effective, echocardiography remains a keystone in the evaluation of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Echocardiographic assessment of cardiac function at rest and during dobutamine stress has direct clinical implications. LÄS MER

  3. 2. The bicuspid aortic valve : studies on valve morphology and pathology in relation to ascending aortic dilatation and coronary artery disease

    Författare :Veronica Jackson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The prevalence of bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is 1-2% and is thereby the most common cardiac malformation. BAV is highly associated with valvular dysfunction and aortic conditions such as ascending aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection. Of BAV individuals, 25-50% will develop indications for surgical intervention. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Novel insights into echocardiographic assessment of cardiac function following heart surgery

    Författare :Nashmil Hashemi; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Assessment of cardiac function is a fundamental in everyday clinical decision making and is essential diagnostic tool for choosing therapy in patients with cardiac disease. Currently, echocardiography is the integral part in management of patients with different cardiac disease and the most established imaging tool in the assessment of cardiac function. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Effect of valve replacement for aortic stenosis on ventricular function

    Författare :Ying Zhao; Michael Henein; Per Lindqvist; Eugenio Picano; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Aortic stenosis; aortic valve replacement; echocardiography; speckle tracking; exercise echocardiography; ventricular function; septal radial motion; twist; displacement; strain; strain rate;

    Sammanfattning : Background：Aortic stenosis (AS) is the commonest valve disease in the West. Aortic valve replacement (AVR) remains the only available management for AS and results in improved symptoms and recovery of ventricular functions. LÄS MER

  7. 5. The right ventricle in volume or pressure overload : Insights from novel imaging techniques

    Författare :Aleksandra Trzebiatowska-Krzynska; Eva Swahn; Niels Erik Nielsen; Lars Wallby; Marcus Carlsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : This study is inspired by the gap in knowledge regarding the timing of cardiac surgery and interventions in adult patients with congenital heart disease. There are many parameters used assessing right ventricular function; however, most of them have pitfalls. LÄS MER
