LV pressure-volume relations via radionuclide ventriculography in small CAD cohorts remain hypothesis-generating; leaves open clinical utility.
This study describes a non-invasive method using radionuclide ventriculography and sphygmomanometry to assess the relationship between left ventricular peak systolic pressure and end-systolic volume.
Watkins et al. (1982) studied this question. Radionuclide ventriculography evaluated the relation between left ventricular peak systolic pressure and end-systolic volume in 12 normal subjects and 12 patients with coronary artery disease.
