Improved stroke volume assessment in the aortic and mitral valves with a new method in subjects without regurgitation (2005)

Sadik, May, Rundqvist, Bengt, Selimovic, Nedim, Bech-Hanssen, Odd

Background Echocardiography combining Doppler and two-dimensional data is recommended for quantitative assessments of valvular regurgitation. We applied a new method to calculate the mitral annulus...

The E/e filling index and right ventricular pressure in relation to applied international Doppler recommendations of left ventricular filling assessment (2005)

Wallentin Guron, Cecilia, Bech-Hanssen, Odd, Wikh, Ronny, Rosengren, Annika, Hartford, Marianne, Caidahl, Kenneth

Aim A ratio >15 between the early diastolic pulsed Doppler velocities of the mitral inflow (E) and the basal left ventricular (LV) tissue (e) has been demonstrated to predict an elevated LV filling...
