Sign in to download full-size image Fig. 7.1. Orientation of the apex of the ventricle. These views show some of the variation of the orientation of the left ventricle. The views are from the midesophageal window, with the sector at 90°, with no ante- or retroflexion of the probe fro...
The Simpson method also makes geometric assumptions. It considers the discs to be circular (defined by the diameter). Actually the cross-section of the ventricle is not round, especially in the presence of pathologies. To obtain a better approximation, you may use the Simpson method on a two...

BackgroundIn aortic stenosis, the response of the left ventricle to pressure overload varies from compensated hypertrophy to overt heart failure. The determinants of left ventricular adaptation are poorly understoodMethods and ResultsLeft ventricular function was compared to assess the role of sex in 34...
We undertook the present study to determine whether the near-term (approximately 0.9 gestation) fetal left ventricle, func- tioning in a simulated "postnatal circulatory environment" (ab- olition of most central shunts with a small left to right shunt through the ductus arteriosus, a dominant ...
Removal of great vessels, atria and free wall of the right ventricle is time-consuming and difficult to complete accurately because of the small size of the organs. Thus, Ghanem et al.17 note, ‘For the assessment of left-ventricular mass (LVM) in mice histomorphometry used to be the “...

In left ventricular disease, an increased pressure energy from the right ventricle results in both a maintained forward flow and an increase in left ventricular end-...
