Her scalpel sliced open cardiac chambers, laying them bare to inspection.

The dilated left ventricle causes an increase in the wall stress of the cardiac chamber as well.

It is measured as the amount of blood regurgitated into a cardiac chamber divided by the stroke volume.

The right sided cardiac chambers and pulmonary arteries also develop mild to severe dilation.

Ordered sinoatrial control of atrial electrical activity is lost, as a result coordinated pressure generation does not occur in the upper cardiac chambers.

Cardiac chamber catheterization assists in assessing the severity of regurgitation and any left ventricular dysfunction.

In radionuclide ventriculography, the radionuclide has the property of circulating through the cardiac chambers, availing for studies of the pumping function of the heart.

The most definitive test for the diagnosis of cardiac tamponade is equalization of diastolic pressures between all cardiac chambers on right-heart cardiac catheterization.

Cardiac ventriculography can be performed with a radionuclide in radionuclide ventriculography or with an iodine-based contrast in cardiac chamber catheterization.

Subsets of this technique are mainly coronary catheterization, involving the catheterization of the coronary arteries, and catheterization of cardiac chambers and valves.

Catheterization of cardiac chambers and valves may be performed in the same round as a coronary catheterization, and may also involve nearby major vessels, such as the aorta.

Cardiac dilation is where mainly one or more cardiac chambers is enlarged, while cardiac hypertrophy is where mainly cardiac muscle is enlarged.

The most conspicuous finding of the autopsy was large amounts of fat in large arteries and veins and in the cardiac chambers, as well as intravascular fat in organs, especially the liver.

A chest X-ray may be taken, which reveals the overall size of neonate's heart (as a reflection of the combined mass of the cardiac chambers) and the appearance of the blood flow to the lungs.

In his 1708 graduate thesis, De circulo sangunis in corde (On the Circulation of the Blood in the Heart), he described the tiny cardiac venous tributaries that drain directly into the cardiac chambers.

Earl scanned her ocher-colored liver, a pair of charcoal-tinted smoker's lungs, two glistening gray kidneys, and a maroon heart coated with yellow fat, the four cardiac chambers sliced open like the inner compartments of a large red pepper.

Coronary arteriovenous fistula between coronary artery and another cardiac chamber, like, the coronary sinus, right atrium, or right ventricle ; may cause steal syndrome under conditions like myocardial infarction and possible angina or ventricular arrhythmias, if the shunt is large in magnitude.
