Title: Ultrasonography in pericardial effusion. Author: Dusaj IS. Journal: Indian J Chest Dis Allied Sci; 1989; 31(2):113-9. PubMed ID: 2606544. Abstract: Four cases of pericardial effusion diagnosed by echocardiography are reported. While one of the four cases was referred for echocardiography with a diagnosis of pericardial effusion, the other three patients were selected for echocardiography on the basis of cardiomegaly demonstrated in plain x-ray chest examination. Real time echocardiography was considered to be most rapid, safe, convenient, accurate and least invasive method of diagnosing pericardial effusion.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
