Radionuclide evaluation of cardiocirculatory performance at rest and with exercise.
The author discusses the types of radionuclide studies performed, analyzes the methods of evaluating left and right ventricular ejection fraction and volumes, reviews methods for calculating regurgitant valvular lesions, examines the effects of exercise and diseases on cardiac dynamics, and relates cardiac and pulmonary dynamics during disease conditions and forms of stress.
