[Radionuclide ventriculography in coronary heart disease]. 1983

R Bauer, and O Lauer, and E Sauer, and H R Langhammer, and H Sebening, and W Bachmann

Heart function can be investigated non-invasively and without risk for the patient by means of radionuclide ventriculography. Coronary artery disease can be diagnosed with high sensitivity and distinguished from other diseases of the heart with high specificity by typical alterations of heart function as seen in rest and/or exercise scans. The hemodynamic significance of invasively proven stenoses of coronary arteries can de demonstrated and the function and functional capacity of surviving vital myocardium after myocardial infarction can be quantified scintigraphically. The efficacy of medical and surgical therapy can be documented and the course of disease can be followed up.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D011877 Radionuclide Imaging The production of an image obtained by cameras that detect the radioactive emissions of an injected radionuclide as it has distributed differentially throughout tissues in the body. The image obtained from a moving detector is called a scan, while the image obtained from a stationary camera device is called a scintiphotograph. Gamma Camera Imaging,Radioisotope Scanning,Scanning, Radioisotope,Scintigraphy,Scintiphotography,Imaging, Gamma Camera,Imaging, Radionuclide
D003327 Coronary Disease An imbalance between myocardial functional requirements and the capacity of the CORONARY VESSELS to supply sufficient blood flow. It is a form of MYOCARDIAL ISCHEMIA (insufficient blood supply to the heart muscle) caused by a decreased capacity of the coronary vessels.

D005082 Physical Exertion Expenditure of energy during PHYSICAL ACTIVITY. Intensity of exertion may be measured by rate of OXYGEN CONSUMPTION; HEAT produced, or HEART RATE. Perceived exertion, a psychological measure of exertion, is included. Physical Effort,Effort, Physical,Efforts, Physical,Exertion, Physical,Exertions, Physical,Physical Efforts,Physical Exertions
D006352 Heart Ventricles The lower right and left chambers of the heart. The right ventricle pumps venous BLOOD into the LUNGS and the left ventricle pumps oxygenated blood into the systemic arterial circulation.
