  • Title: [Regional ventricular wall kinetics in cardiomyopathies as an expression of disordered function of the left ventricle].
    Author: Schäfer RO, Chevljagin SA, Wallrabe D, Naumov VG, Pahl L, Sobol JS.
    Journal: Z Gesamte Inn Med; 1987 Aug 15; 42(16):453-7. PubMed ID: 3687137.
    Abstract:
    Regional wall motion of the left ventricle was estimated in different types of cardiomyopathy CMP (hypertrophic obstructive CMP = HOCM, hypertrophic nonobstructive CMP = HNCM, apical hypertrophic CMP = AHCM and dilatative CMP = DCM) using computer-assisted analysis of two-dimensional echocardiographic images. Different kinetic pattern depending on distribution of hypertrophy were shown in the hypertrophic CMP. The degree and the type of the disturbances of left ventricular wall motion in DCM is useful as a prognostic criteria of the disease.
