Abstract |
In conclusion, color Doppler signal of PV flow was enhanced and the otpimal recordings could be detected in most cases after intravenous injection of sonicated albumin. Improved visualization of PV flow Doppler signal by intravenous injection of sonicated albumin should have important clinical implications for the assessment of LV diastolic function by using Doppler technique.
