Abstract:Summary: The present investigation was undertaken to assess a new scintigraphic method for the diagnosis of left-ta-right shunts due to atrial septal defect based on the differing stroke volumes of left and right ventricles and to compare it with oxymetric data. Radionuclide ventriculography was carried out after idjection. of 20 mCi 99mtechnetium-labeled red blood cells. TiI:ne-activity curves were obtained from the left and right ventricular regions, and the ratio (A) of end-diastolicend-systolic count rate … Show more
