Ventricular function.
Multiple modalities contribute to the evaluation of ventricular function. The role of cineangiography, echocardiography, MR imaging, ultrafast CT, and nuclear medicine continue to evolve and improve our understanding of the physiology and pathophysiology of ventricular function. This article discusses the use and limitation of each modality.
