Abstract
GBPS is a simple and reproducible acquisition method for the assessment of RVEF and RV volumes. RVEF values calculated by 8- and 16-frame GBPS correlated well with FP-RNA, although mean RVEF values from FP-RNA were lower than GBPS RVEF values. In addition, RV ESV and EDV were both well correlated with 8- and 16-frame GBPS. GBPS should prove to be useful in diagnosis, as well as in following disease progression and evaluating the efficacy of therapeutic interventions, in patients with biventricular dysfunction.
