Recommendations for quantitation of the left ventricle by two-dimensional echocardiography

…, D Sahn, I Schnittger, NH Silverman, AJ Tajik - Journal of the American …, 1989 - Elsevier
We have presented recommendations for the optimum acquisition of quantitative two-dimensional
data in the current echocardiographic environment. It is likely that advances in …

Evaluation of diastolic filling of left ventricle in health and disease: Doppler echocardiography is the clinician's Rosetta Stone

RA Nishimura, AJ Tajik - Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 1997 - jacc.org
Abnormalities of diastolic function have a major role in producing the signs and symptoms
