Title: Septal bounce in constrictive pericarditis. Diagnosis and dynamic evaluation with multidetector CT. Author: Ghersin E, Lessick J, Litmanovich D, Ofer A, Elhasid R, Lorber A, Dragu R, Rispler S, Haimi M, Engel A. Journal: J Comput Assist Tomogr; 2004; 28(5):676-8. PubMed ID: 15480044. Abstract: Sixteen-slice multidetector CT findings of a case of constrictive pericarditis in a pediatric patient are presented. Multidetector CT depicted a variety of diagnostic findings including dynamic evaluation of interventricular septal motion through the cardiac cycle, documenting a diastolic septal bounce. This case illustrates the full capabilities of multidetector cardiac CT in the evaluation of pericardial pathology.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
