摘要
During the past few years Doppler assessment of pulmonary venous flow has gained increasing interest. The growing experience with the use of transesophageal echocardiography, the approach that nearly always yields registrations adequate for quantitative analysis, has markedly contributed in. this respect. The Doppler-derived pulmonary venous flow pattern, can be regarded as a measure of left atrial inflow and it augments the clinical significance of Doppler transmitral flow in the evaluation. of diastolic left ventricular function. This article summarizes physiological background possible applications, and limitations of Doppler echocardiography of pulmonary venous flow in Clinical cardiology.
