title: [Ultrasonic diagnosis of post-infarct aneurysms of the left ventricle].
abstract: Ultrasonic sectorial scanning in combination with doppler-cardiography enables visualization of left-ventricular postinfarction aneurysm, and the assessment of myocardial contraction geometry, the state of the aneurysm wall and blood flow characteristics. Doppler-cardiography is capable of detecting blood stasis in the left-ventricular cavity, while sectorial scanning can diagnose intraventricular thrombosis. Both techniques should be used extensively for the detection of left-ventricular postinfarction aneurysms.
