Abstract:
Objective The function of regional myocardium of patients with myocardial infarction(MI) treated by intra-coronary stenting was determined with quantitative tissue velocity imaging(QTVI).Methods Twenty healthy controls and 24 patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction underwent QTVI with high-frame rates. The myocardial tissue velocity imaging in the apical 4-chamber view and apical 2-chamber view and apical longitude view were digitized and stored. Off-line ventricular walls regional velocity profiles along long axis were obtained, and systolic peak velocities (Vs) and early and late diastolic peak velocities (V E and V A) of 12 regional segments were measured.Results Under normal and ischemic conditions, 6 ventricular walls showed significant basal-apical myocardial velocity in the long-axis reduction in V S and V E and V A were significantly reduced in the abnormal segments in patients with MI. Conclusion QTVI can be used to analyze regional myocardial motion in the long-axis quantitatively and synchronously;intra-coronary stenting can obviously improve regional myocardial function of left ventricle,especially the diastolic function.
