Left ventricular papillary muscle perfusion assessed with myocardial contrast echocardiography.
This myocardial contrast echocardiographic study shows that left ventricular posteromedial papillary muscle is supplied by either the right or left coronary artery in most subjects, but may be supplied by both coronary arteries. The posteromedial papillary muscle and its adjacent area may be supplied by a different coronary artery.
