Abstract:
:Evaluation of ventricular performance is essential in the diagnosis and long-term management of patients with heart disease. This can be most easily performed clinically using simple tools. When more definitive objective assessment of cardiac function is indicated, the equilibrium gated blood pool study provides reliable angiographic evaluation of the heart. It will continue as a mainstay in the armamentarium of cardiology.
