Hypothesis-generating for left ventricular cardioangiography in mitral regurgitation; prospective validation required before clinical adoption.
Observational
Does cardioangiography via left ventricular puncture accurately demonstrate mitral regurgitation in dogs and humans?
Cardioangiography via left ventricular puncture is a feasible and valuable method for diagnosing and grading mitral regurgitation.
Smith et al. (1956) conducted an observational in Mitral regurgitation. Cardioangiography (injection of contrast media into the left ventricle) was evaluated on Feasibility of demonstrating mitral regurgitation and correlation with anatomic findings. Cardioangiography via left ventricular puncture with contrast media injection was feasible and valuable for determining the competence of the mitral valve and relative degree of insufficiency.
