โœฆ Synopsis


Doppler myocardial imaging (DMI) is a new technique with potential clinical and research applications. It applies traditional pulsed and color Doppler techniques to the analysis of myocardial contractile velocity.

A major area of focus is in the quantitation of regional and global myocardial function and evaluation of myocardial perfusion in conjunction with myocardial contrast studies. DMI may also provide a direct, relatively load-independent assessment of diastolic function. Further work is required to identify its role in clinical and research studies.

Fetal imaging is integral to the past, present, and future of fetal intervention. In the early history of fetal intervention, the role of prenatal ultrasound was primarily to identify a fetal lesion, provide a correct anatomic diagnosis, and exclude other anatomic defects. We now depend on ultrasoun
