Does videodensitometry provide accurate information on left ventricular function in patients with angina pectoris?
Videodensitometry is an easily performed method for estimating left ventricular ejection fraction, providing important information for clinical evaluation in patients with angina pectoris.
Erikson et al. (1978) conducted an observational in Angina pectoris (n=121). Videodensitometry was evaluated on Ejection fraction of the left ventricle. Videodensitometry determined a mean left ventricular ejection fraction of 31% in patients with angina pectoris, providing an easily performed method for clinical evaluation.
