cinefluorography Explanation: I think this must be meant cinefluorography -The use of a movie camera to obtain fluoroscopic views, especially of the heart and great vessels or gastrointestinal tract, after the administration of a contrast medium. A biplane cinefluorographic technic for measuring ventricular volume is described and its accuracy and limitations are assessed. Although rather complicated and time-consuming at present, the method permits construction of volume curves and estimation of stroke volume of the left ventricle for several successive contractions in the intact animal or man. This method may prove most useful for physiologic research and ultimately for diagnostic purposes -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2013-08-27 11:24:04 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- or just cineangiography - the photographic recording of fluoroscopic images of the blood vessels by motion picture techniques. Cineangiography of the left ventricle during exercise has been used in an attempt to define the area of ischaemic myocardium in patients suffering from angina pectoris in whom coronary artery surgery was contemplated. A correlation was established between the site of coronary artery obstruction and the area of abnormal myocardial contraction. This method of localization of regional left ventricular ischaemia may furnish useful diagnostic information when coronary reconstructive surgery is contemplated in patients with exercise-induced angina pectoris. |

| "cinemagrafie" dynamic radionuclide imaging Explanation: Dynamic (in cine mode) radionuclide imaging showed a normal left ventricle. (see also discussion) In order to provide you with a wider assortment to choose from and stimulate your appetite :-) Anyway, I am sure you are not going to deliver me from the dilemma in which I see myself and will leave me to my own devices :-) I do think, depending on the exact details, both options can be useful in your text and I wonder if more options were available. This means you and several colleagues here, if they were interested and willing to follow my reasoning, could agree with my answers insofar they represent the meaning of what is meant here by 'cinemagrafie', even if this term is incorrect, idiosyncratic, ambiguous, non-standard or whatever. In order to solve this dilemma, I have decided to put it between quotation marks. My reasoning: Suppose this is about radionuclide imaging of cardiac function rather than about conventional cineangiography. Is this the case? But let's suppose this is the case. Then 'cinemagrafie' would be a word that pertains to this technique. Then I see in your reference things like: Principal components analysis is an alternative form of assessing regional function, creating a visually more pleasing motion image by reducing the appearance of noise in the cine. A visual qualitative assessment of the regional ventricular WM is made by displaying the dynamic images as a cinematic loop in all three standard views. A large number of computer programmes have been developed for analysis of cardiac function in nuclear cardiology, ranging from simple programmes for image presentation in cine mode to .. Apparently there is a cine mode: a mode with motion images So if 'cinemagrafie' pertains to this form of radionuclide imaging, 'radionuclide imaging in cine mode' might be an option for 'cinemagrafie' -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day15 hrs (2013-08-29 00:47:25 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- Thank you, ebell, for digging in your heels a bit. You forced me to reconsider and especially your remark that there might be a relation with SPECT and your reference were very helpful. In the end, I do think that 'cinemagrafie', although peculiar, is more likely to be used in connection to 'radionuclide imaging' then in connection to 'cineangiography'. The limited context seems to point in this direction as well. I have learned a lot. |
