[Results and perspectives of the use of echocardiography and ultrasonic scanning of the heart].
The results of echocardiography and ultrasonic scanning of the heart in over 600 patients with ischaemic heart disease, hypertension, heart diseases and other pathology are presented. The high diagnostic value of these techniques in terms of detection of acquired and congenital heart failures, exsudative pericardites, left atrial tumors is demonstrated. The methods permit to evaluate myocardial hypertrophy, left ventricular dilatation, and to reveal myocardial contractility disorders at their early stages. The prospects of the employment of ultrasonic techniques in cardiological practice are analysed.
